Fresh Fruit & Vegetables for USDA Customers in Montana

DLA Troop Support plans to establish an Indefinite Delivery Purchase Order with a commercial supplier to provide a full range of USDA Grade No. 1 or better fresh fruit and vegetable products to non-Department of Defense customers. The contract is intended to cover the supply needs until a longer-term contract is finalized and implemented. The solicitation will lead to two separate awards, each with a maximum value of $150,000. Pricing under this order will remain fixed for approximately three months, and the solicitation posting was anticipated between August 7 and August 11, 2017. The procurement falls under NAICS code 311991, which pertains to fresh produce. Although specific performance locations and organization types are not detailed, key points of contact include contract specialists and contracting officers from DLA who manage the solicitation process. This opportunity aims to ensure reliable delivery of fresh fruit and vegetables for USDA customers, particularly serving the Montana region, until a more permanent arrangement can be secured.
