Resale Ordering Agreement (ROA) Modification for FDS items

Solicitation # ROAModificationFDS

The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) is implementing a mass modification to the Resale Ordering Agreement (ROA) for Frequent Delivery System (FDS) items, effective November 11, 2026. This no-cost agreement updates the ordering and delivery framework by establishing the role of DeCA-authorized Distributors and a Cost of Goods (COG) pricing structure. Under this framework, suppliers are required to maintain established COG pricing and ensure product availability for authorized distributors, who then handle physical distribution to DeCA commissaries, ports, and other designated receipt locations. While DeCA typically remits payment to distributors, the agency retains the unilateral right to order and pay suppliers directly at the established COG. Suppliers must adhere to strict quality and compliance standards, including providing the latest date-of-pack products and meeting specific minimum shelf-life requirements at the time of final delivery: 10 days for milk, 12 days for processed meats and chilled products, 21 days for frozen items and ice cream, and 30 days for center-store grocery. Compliance obligations include brand-name certifications, regulatory adherence, and a strict prohibition on furnishing covered seafood items per 10 U.S.C. 4862(g). Additionally, suppliers must submit recurring monthly trade term reports and provide ad-hoc cost breakdowns within ten calendar days upon request. Price quotes must be submitted electronically via the EDI 879 Transaction Set or the DeCA Web Pricing portal by the 10th or 25th of the month to meet specific effective date windows.
