RFP National Combat Rations Program Long Term SolutionsPublic Works and Government Services Canada, acting on behalf of the Department of National Defence, is seeking proposals for the procurement of shelf stable combat rations under the National Combat Ration Program. These rations are essential for supporting the Canadian Armed Forces during training, domestic and deployed operations, and emergency scenarios where fresh food supplies are unavailable. The contract involves the supply of consumable, shelf stable food and non-food items packaged together to meet stringent requirements for durability, nutrition, and portability. The solicitation offers two contracting models: a Prime Vendor approach, where a single contractor manages the entire requirement, or a Category by Category approach, allowing multiple contractors to supply specific components with one responsible for final ration assembly. Proposals must be submitted through the SAP Ariba system by the deadline of July 22, 2026, and late submissions will not be accepted. The contract is based in Canada, overseen by the Government of Canada's Department of Public Works and Government Services, with Jennifer Bennett serving as the contracting authority.

The government intends to award one contract per group, requiring offerors to provide all items listed in the Schedule of Items and meet specified quality standards, primarily USDA Grade Number 1 or better for fresh produce. Proposals must be fully compliant with the solicitation's requirements to be considered. Interested parties are encouraged to complete and return the Market Research Survey by June 19, 2026, to the designated DLA contacts via email.
