USDA is currently gathering requirements to include quantities, locations and frequency to get a better idea on what the needs for fresh shell eggs will be. When responding to this RFI, please consider the following questions: 1. Is your firm able to deliver shell eggs on the same truck as produce items? 2. Are there any limitations on frequency of deliveries and quantities for fresh shell eggs? 3. Does soliciting for fresh shell eggs as well as produce items limit your ability to offer? 4. If you are already delivering to these remote areas, will adding fresh shell eggs to the contract have an effect on your proposed pricing? If affirmative, please provide an estimate of any cost decreases or increases that may result (a simple percentage basis). 5. What are the financial risks, if any, in committing to a long term contract that included fresh shell eggs? We encourage your participation; please share your ideas on the feasibility of supply fresh shell eggs. Your written comments, suggestions and ideas regarding this proposal will be treated as confidential and for Government use only. Please provide your responses via mail or email, by March 12, 2013 at 3:00 p.m. EDT to the following address: DLA Troop Support Philadelphia ATTN: FTP/Brenda M.
