The DLA Troop Support is seeking proposals from small businesses to provide a comprehensive supply of fresh fruits and vegetables for both DoD (Troop) and non-DoD (USDA School) customers within the Arkansas Zone. The total contract value is estimated at $124.5 million over a five-year period consisting of a 24-month initial term and two subsequent 18-month tiers, with indefinite quantities required at various delivery sites specified in the solicitation. The procurement calls for at least 50% of the contract value to be supplied by small business manufacturers, eliminating the need for a Non-Manufacturer rule waiver. The contract is a total small business set-aside, ensuring only qualified small businesses are eligible, with a guaranteed minimum order of 10% of the first year’s value. Award decisions will be determined using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) approach, where offers must meet strict technical requirements and provide pricing for all items and tiers. Technically acceptable proposals must comply fully with solicitation terms, present proof of a valid PACA license, and demonstrate successful USDA Harmonized Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) Plus + Standard Audit certifications, or their commercial equivalent for each performance location. Pricing will be evaluated based on a detailed process, weighing aggregate distribution and delivered prices equally, and proposals missing complete pricing will be excluded. Past performance is not a primary evaluation factor, relying instead on the established technical requirements and certifications. The contract is structured as an indefinite delivery model, and the government may award without discussion, so initial submissions must be comprehensive. The solicitation is anticipated to be released in September 2025, and full proposal details, including delivery site listings, will be provided within the official solicitation documents accessible via SAM.gov and the DIBBS system.
