PRODUCE-MIL/CA AND USDA SCHOOL LUNCH PRO

Solicitation # SPE300-25-R-0042

This contract, identified as SPE300-25-R-0042, is a total small business set-aside for the procurement of fresh fruits, vegetables, and shell eggs to support Department of Defense troops and USDA school lunch programs. The contractor is responsible for maintaining and updating an electronic ordering catalog that reflects current market prices through an Economic Price Adjustment (EPA) mechanism, which permits bi-weekly adjustments to the Delivered Price component of the Contract Unit Price, provided each adjustment is substantiated by a paid invoice and approved as fair and reasonable by the Contracting Officer. Pricing is structured into two fixed components—the Delivered Price, which includes the cost of goods and standard freight from the grower, manufacturer, or approved redistributor, and the Distribution Price, which covers all other costs such as packaging, transportation to final destinations, overhead, and profit. The contractor must strictly pass on all rebates, discounts, and financial incentives received from suppliers either through immediate catalog price reductions or by remitting payments directly to the U.S. Treasury with detailed supporting documentation. Catalog additions and modifications require prior approval using the mandatory Request for New Item Form and must meet strict submission deadlines of 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Mondays for inclusion in the following Wednesday’s catalog update. The contractor is required to use DLA Troop Support’s STORES system and USDA’s FFAVORS Web portal to reconcile customer receipts with invoices, correct un-reconciled invoice data within 120 days, and submit all invoices via EDI transaction sets including 810, 820, 832, and 850. The contract prohibits upward price adjustments beyond a 120% cumulative ceiling on Delivered Prices over the entire performance period without prior written justification and approval. A price audit may be conducted up to twice annually for three years post-final payment, during which the Government may examine records from the contractor and all tiers of its supply chain. The contractor must hold a valid PACA license, be registered in SAM.gov and DIBBS, and comply with all requirements for small business status. Performance spans multiple delivery points across the Mississippi Zone, with no single designated place of performance, and the contract operates under an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity structure with an overall estimated value ranging from $6.65 million to a maximum of $49.875 million over a potential five-year term, though the base period is projected to span 24 months.
