- Description
- This notice announces the FPI's plans to offer products, such as Meat, Poultry, and Fish; Dairy Products, Beef Cattle, and Vegetables, to the Federal Bureau of Prisons and to Federal agencies as new, competitive products. Meat and fish are classified under Federal Stock Classification (FSC) 8905 Meat, Poultry and Fish. Dairy products are classified under FSC 8910, Dairy Foods and Eggs. Beef Cattle and live fish are classified under FSC 8810, Live Animals Raised for Food. Fruits and Vegetables are classified under FSC 8915, Fruits and Vegetables. FPI will be competing for business in the federal market, without invoking its mandatory source. Once a product is sold competitively, by FPI, it remains a competitive product and will never be added to FPI's Schedule of Products as a mandatory source product. FPI will not attempt to exercise its mandatory source at some future point in time nor seek from its Board of Directors to expand production of the product by invoking the guidelines process at some later date. It has been previously determined by the FPI Board of Directors that whatever share of the market FPI acquires on a competitive basis will be deemed to be a reasonable share of the market within the meaning of 18 U.S.C. 4122(b)(2). Interested parties have 30 days to comment or raise questions with FPI's Board of Directors. All written correspondence should be addressed to: Chief, Marketing, Research, and Corporate Support Branch, Federal Prison Industries, Inc., 320 First Street, NW, Washington, D.C. 20534.
