89--Notice of Intent to Implement Option Year Three for Contract Meals.

The North Dakota Army National Guard has issued a formal 60-day Notice of Intent to exercise the third option year on an existing contract for providing meals at Camp Grafton in Devils Lake, North Dakota. This contract, identified by solicitation number W901UZ09D0002, pertains to food services under NAICS code 722310 and is managed by the Department of Defense's W7NT Uspfo Activity for the North Dakota Army National Guard, with the office located in Bismarck, ND. The notice signals the continuation of meal services under the established agreement, allowing for an extension of the contract without re-solicitation during this option period, thereby ensuring uninterrupted catering support at the facility. The contract extension notice was posted on October 4, 2011, and involves no changes to the type of set-aside or terms beyond the implementation of the third option year. This step follows prior contract years and is part of a structured agreement that the Army Guard uses to maintain consistent logistical support. The exercise of this option year demonstrates the agency’s preference to maintain the current contractor’s services for meal provision at Camp Grafton, supporting military personnel and operations at the installation.
