Raw Shelled Peanuts for Domestic Food Assistance ProgramsThe United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has issued solicitation number 12-3J14-26-B-0304 for the purchase of Raw Shelled Peanuts intended for Domestic Food Assistance Programs. This solicitation is a combined synopsis and solicitation document that serves as the sole invitation for bids, with responses due by June 19, 2026. The acquisition is partially set aside for small business concerns under FAR 19.5, aligning with NAICS code 311911. The contract will be managed by the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service office located in Washington, DC, with Philip Helmer serving as the primary point of contact for this procurement. The announcement highlights USDA’s commitment to fair and timely contracting processes, offering an Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests as an alternative dispute resolution path. Prospective offerors are encouraged to first address concerns with the Contracting Officer and, if unresolved, escalate matters to the Ombudsman for informal or formal protests. Formal protests must adhere to specific timeframes and requirements outlined in FAR 33.104 and can be submitted electronically, with the USDA aiming to resolve protests within 35 calendar days. Importantly, initiating a protest with USDA precludes pursuing the same issue with external forums like the Government Accountability Office (GAO), ensuring an internal resolution process.
