The South Carolina Army National Guard (SCARNG) issued this sources sought notice to identify potential large or small business entities capable of providing bulk rations and condiments for unit food service personnel. These items, which must be similar to those used in commercial restaurants or Department of Defense dining facilities, support Soldiers during weekend training and annual training events. The requirement is solicited as an all-or-nothing buy, and potential contractors must comply with South Carolina Department of Agriculture retail food safety regulations for in-state deliveries. While this notice does not constitute a request for quote, the government anticipates issuing a firm-fixed-price contract for these services.
The project is classified under NAICS 722310 Food Service Contractors and PSC 8945 FOOD, OILS AND FATS, with a set-aside designation of NONE (NONE). Deliveries are required at SCARNG armories throughout South Carolina and at various out-of-state training locations, such as Fort Stewart, Georgia. Due to limited cold storage at these sites, the performance period often requires multiple deliveries to a single location. Requirements valued under $15,000 are paid via Government Purchase Card, while requirements exceeding that threshold are paid through the Wide Area Workflow portal.
