Chicken Fajita Strips for use in Domestic Food Assistance Programs
Solicitation # 12-3J14-26-B-0374
This solicitation, numbered 12-3J14-26-B-0374, is a combined synopsis and invitation for bid issued under FAR 5.101(d) for Chicken Fajita Strips intended for use in Domestic Food Assistance Programs. The acquisition is exclusively set aside for small business concerns, with the North American Industry Classification System code 311615, and no separate written solicitation will be issued. Offers must be submitted by the deadline of August 21, 2026, at 6:00 p.m., and all terms, provisions, and clauses are incorporated by reference, with full text available electronically through www.acquisition.gov. The contracting activity is managed by the USDA AMS 3J14 office located in Washington, D.C., and inquiries should be directed to the primary point of contact, Kennetta Boone, or secondary contact, Carrie Meyers. The USDA has established a two-tiered protest resolution process to ensure fair and transparent procurement practices. Concerns regarding the solicitation must first be submitted to the Contracting Officer under Tier 1, with a goal of resolution within ten business days; this step does not suspend deadlines or performance. If unresolved, a formal written agency protest may be filed under Tier 2, either with the Contracting Officer or the USDA Independent Review Authority, with the protester required to specify their preferred review forum. Protests must include all required information per FAR 33.104-4(a)(3) and be submitted electronically to SPE.inquiry@usda.gov and the Contracting Officer. Filing a protest with USDA prohibits simultaneous submission to the Government Accountability Office or any other external forum, and failure to comply results in dismissal. Agency protests are typically resolved within 35 business days, and contract awards or performance are suspended during review unless the government justifies an exception for urgent or compelling reasons.

Chicken and Other Chicken Products for use in Domestic Food Assistance Programs
Solicitation # 12-3J14-26-B-0370
The U.S. Department of Agriculture is soliciting bids for chicken and other chicken products to support domestic food assistance programs under solicitation number 12-3J14-26-B-0370, issued as an invitation for bid with no set-aside for small businesses. The acquisition, classified under NAICS code 311615, is administered by the USDA AMS 3J14 office in Washington D.C., with responses due by August 13, 2026. This combined synopsis and solicitation serves as the sole official request for proposals, with no separate written solicitation to follow, and incorporates all applicable provisions and clauses accessible via www.acquisition.gov. Offers must be submitted in accordance with the specified deadlines and requirements, and performance is expected to support government food assistance initiatives. The USDA outlines a two-tiered process for addressing concerns related to this solicitation. Initially, interested parties are encouraged to resolve issues directly with the Contracting Officer through Tier 1 informal resolution, which does not suspend deadlines or performance and must be addressed within ten business days. If unresolved, a formal written agency protest may be filed under Tier 2, either with the Contracting Officer or the USDA Independent Review Authority, with the protester electing the review forum. Protests must include all required information per FAR 33.104-4 and be submitted electronically to SPE.inquiry@usda.gov and the Contracting Officer within applicable timeframes. Filing an agency protest triggers an automatic suspension of award or performance unless the government justifies continued activity for urgent reasons. Protesters are barred from filing duplicate protests with GAO or other external bodies while the USDA protest is pending, and the agency aims to resolve such protests within thirty-five business days. Questions should be directed to Wayne Wright or Carrie Meyers as listed in the solicitation.
