Catered Lunch Meals for 200 Attendees

This contract requires the provision of lunch meals for 200 attendees on event days, with all food services strictly compliant with health and safety standards and inclusive of necessary dietary accommodations for participants with allergies, religious restrictions, or other nutritional needs. The service must be delivered reliably and consistently to meet the demands of the event schedule, ensuring quality, freshness, and proper handling throughout preparation and service. The work is classified as a subcontract under a Total Small Business Set-Aside, reserved exclusively for small businesses as defined by the SBA, and is tied to the NAICS code 722310 for food services and catering. The contract was posted on June 25, 2026, with a response deadline of June 1, 2026, at 3:00 PM, indicating a potential retroactive posting or administrative anomaly in the timeline. The performing location is Johnston, and the agency responsible is the Department of Defense through its W7M8 Uspfo Activity Ia Arng office. The award is subject to SBA size standards for small business eligibility and falls under a subcontract structure, meaning the prime contractor may be managing multiple vendors to fulfill the meal service requirement. All bidders must be certified small businesses and prepared to demonstrate compliance with federal food safety protocols and the ability to scale service to exactly 200 individuals per event day.
