Btc1, LLC

Btc1, LLC is a minority-owned, for-profit limited liability company that provides meals to support military operations and disaster relief efforts. As a prime contractor, Btc1 has received federal contract awards from the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence to supply individual meals meeting nutritional specifications for consumption by service members and emergency responders.

Specifically, over the past year Btc1 held contracts valued at approximately $2.5 million to furnish meals in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida in September 2021. The firm delivered over 5 million shelf-stable meals within a 4-5 day timeframe to aid recovery initiatives in hurricane-affected regions. All contracts took the form of fixed-price delivery orders issued on an urgent basis, without set-aside provisions, under the Agency's National Interest Action Code for hurricane response. Btc1 performed as the sole prime contractor responsible for fulfilling the meal requirements at its Memphis, Tennessee facility.

Additionally, Btc1 was awarded a $5.7 million Basic Ordering Agreement by the Defense Logistics Agency in June 2021 to establish an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for commercial individual meals over a 2-year period. The Agency subsequently issued the aforementioned fixed-price delivery orders against this agreement from September 20-24, valued at around $2.5 million, to supply meals supporting Hurricane Ida relief efforts. This activity demonstrates how the Defense Logistics Agency leverages such contracts to quickly meet sustenance needs for military operations and emergency personnel responding to disasters.
