FCI LEWISBURG 15B20726Q00000012 FY26 Q4 GENERAL SUBSISTENCE

This solicitation, numbered 15B20726Q00000012, is a combined synopsis and solicitation for commercial food supplies under FAR Part 12, issued by the Federal Bureau of Prisons at FCI Lewisburg in Pennsylvania for delivery between July 1 and July 15, 2026. It is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 311999 with a 700-employee size standard, requiring all offerors to self-certify as small businesses and provide a valid Unique Entity ID from SAM.gov. The scope includes the procurement of bulk food items such as ground turkey, canned vegetables, dry cereals, spices, beverage bases, cheese, and condiments, each subject to strict packaging, labeling, and preservation standards compliant with 21 CFR, USDA AMS, and Commercial Item Descriptions. All products must be fresh, wholesome, free of additives or contaminants, and carry expiration dates no earlier than October 1, 2026. Packaging must meet exact specifications—such as sealed frozen logs for turkey, 6/#10 cans per case for peas, and labeled weight and ingredient declarations—and open or improperly labeled items will be rejected. Delivery must occur exclusively through the rear gate of the facility at 2400 Robert F. Miller Drive, Lewisburg, PA 17837. Offerors must submit a complete response via email to Matthew Adler at [email hidden] in PDF format only; no other file types, phone calls, or faxes are permitted. The submission must include a fully completed vendor information sheet and the official request for quotation with pricing, package sizes, and case counts for each line item. Evaluation is based on three factors: price reasonableness, past performance with a rigid Go/No-Go standard on timeliness and accuracy, and technical compliance with product specifications. Award will be made to the responsible offeror providing best value, not necessarily the lowest price. Key contract clauses include DOJ-specific requirements for privacy, information security, and continued performance during emergencies, alongside standard FAR provisions on whistleblower rights, subcontractor protections, buy American preferences, equal opportunity, and trafficking in persons. Payment terms vary by award value—under $15,000 via Government Purchase Card, above via Firm-Fixed Price purchase order—and contractors must accept the order in writing within 48 hours. No invoicing system is specified, and no
