S And S Farms

S And S Farms is a supplier of livestock, primarily Yorkshire pigs, to various agencies of the U.S. federal government. The company operates through its subsidiaries, S&S Farms, LP and Premier Biosource, Inc., to fulfill contracts for the delivery of swine for research, medical training, and food service purposes. Based in Ramona, California, S And S Farms has established itself as a reliable source of high-quality pigs that meet specific weight and age requirements for government contracts.

The majority of S And S Farms' federal contract awards have been through its subsidiary S&S Farms, LP, which has received numerous firm-fixed price Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) calls from the Defense Health Agency. These contracts typically involve the delivery of Yorkshire pigs weighing between 85-97 pounds or 39-44 kilograms, with quantities ranging from 2-3 pigs per order. The company has also fulfilled larger orders, such as a contract with the Department of the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery for 300 Yorkshire swine over five years. Additionally, S And S Farms has supplied pigs to the U.S. Army Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense (USAMRICD) and the Madigan Army Medical Center through its Premier Biosource subsidiary. These contracts demonstrate the company's ability to meet the diverse needs of military and civilian medical research facilities.

S And S Farms holds two significant federal contract Indefinite Delivery Vehicles (IDVs) through its subsidiaries. The first is a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) awarded to Premier Biosource, Inc. by the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command for the provision of medical swine. This single-award BPA has a ceiling value of $187,950 and runs from October 1, 2022, through September 30, 2024. The second IDV is a BPA awarded to S&S Farms, LP by the Defense Health Agency for supplying Yorkshire pigs of various weights and sexes for research purposes. This single-award BPA has a ceiling value of $250,000 and is effective from May 15, 2021, through May 14, 2026. Both IDVs allow the respective agencies to place orders on an as-needed basis, streamlining the procurement process for medical and research swine over extended periods.
