FCI Leavenworth FY27 QTR 1 Bread Requirement

FCI Leavenworth, a facility of the Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Prisons, has issued multiple awards for subsistence requirements, including a specific requirement for FY27 Quarter 1 bread products and various Religious/Kosher Diet supplies for the 2nd Quarter of FY2026. The bread requirement was awarded to Farrell Bread & Bakery for the supply of hot dog buns, hamburger buns, and sliced bread, following a determination of responsibility and a selection based on the lowest price. Other subsistence awards include National Food Group for soy protein products, as well as several vendors for kosher meals and condiments, including JNS Foods, Shaver Foods, LA Foods, Mina Holdings LLC, Elwood International, and BP Food Services. These procurements emphasize a best-value trade-off approach, where high past performance records per FAR 12.203(a)(2) are prioritized, sometimes over the lowest price. The kosher requirements are particularly stringent, requiring mandatory hechsher certification on all packaging, specific ingredient composition limits, and the use of sealed, easy-open pouches. All deliveries are destined for FCI Leavenworth in Kansas. The total estimated value for the 2nd Quarter FY2026 kosher diet supplies is approximately 52,322.35 dollars, covering a wide array of pre-portioned meals, cereals, and condiments that must adhere to strict federal and religious standards.
