FULL LINE FOOD DISTRIBUTIONI FOR NORTHERN NEW YORK REGION

The contract SPE30021D3318 has been modified to extend the period of performance by 361 days through June 26, 2027, or until a new contract is awarded, to maintain uninterrupted Prime Vendor food distribution services for DLA customers in the Northern New York region. This non-competitive action is authorized under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and justified by the sole-source capability of US Foods Los Angeles, the incumbent provider with established logistics infrastructure, supply chain continuity, and integration with DLA systems. Any transition to a new vendor would present unacceptable operational risk, including potential disruptions to food delivery, which could impact mission readiness. The contract is an Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity, fixed-price agreement with Economic Price Adjustment, covering full-line subsistence distribution including chilled, frozen, dairy, and prepared foods. The original estimated value was $17.4 million, with the maximum contract value increased to $33.2 million through this bridge action to account for extended performance and anticipated demand. Performance is centered at Warners, New York, serving all authorized DLA customers across Northern New York, with the contracting activity managed by DLA Troop Support in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The modification is tied to a Justification and Approval document that aligns with FAR Overhaul Part 6 requirements, and no competitive solicitation is planned during the extension period. The contract includes no specified packaging, marking, or inspection standards beyond general federal subsistence compliance, and while detailed CLINs or pricing structures are not provided, the ceiling value reflects the total authorized funding. The CAGE code for the contractor is 1TZ63, and the point of contact for administrative inquiries is Colin Kelly, with Zaida Chevere Torres as a secondary point of contact. The contract will terminate upon award of a successor contract, which is anticipated to result from a full and open competition.
