Solicitation # SPE30026R0049

DLA Troop Support is conducting market research through a Request for Information (RFI) to gather input from potential suppliers regarding the future procurement of fresh milk and dairy products for military installations in South Carolina. This RFI, identified as SPE30026R0049 and posted on August 5, 2026, is not a solicitation and does not obligate the government to award a contract or compensate respondents for their time or expenses. The intent is to inform the development of a future indefinite quantity contract (IQC) with a proposed ordering period from February 7, 2027, to February 2, 2030, with a maximum potential value of $35,625,000. Respondents are required to complete and submit only the official “Market Research Survey-SC Dairy” PDF form via email to Stacy Carcel and Amy Paradis by September 3, 2026, close of business. The government seeks information on vendor capabilities, including registration in SAM.gov and DIBBS, ability to deliver to military sites such as Fort Jackson, USCG Base Charleston, and MCAS Beaufort, and capacity to meet strict freshness standards. Products must be fresh, contain USDA-approved mold inhibitors at permissible levels, and be transported and stored under commercial temperature control standards. Failure to comply with these requirements in a subsequent solicitation will result in technical rejection. Vendors must be prepared to propose on all items within each product group, and only one award is anticipated. Response to this RFI does not guarantee participation in future procurements. Additional mandatory capabilities include full compliance with electronic data interchange (EDI) transactions 810, 820, 832, 850, 861, and 997 for ordering and invoicing through the STORES system, with no alternative invoicing methods accepted. The evaluation for any future solicitation will follow a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach where technical acceptability is a pass/fail criterion, and price will be the determining factor among qualified offerors. The government will protect marked proprietary information and has no intent to release submitted responses. No formal contract clauses, packaging specifications, FOB terms, or detailed payment instructions are included, as this is a pre-solicitation market research tool only.
