- Description
- Dear Valued Suppliers: This is a request for information (RFI). This is not a solicitation for proposals and there is no solicitation available at this time. The Government will not pay for any information received in response to this RFI, nor will the Government compensate any respondent for any cost incurred in developing the information provided to the Government. This RFI does not constitute a commitment from the Government and any information provided in response to this RFI will be used for informational purposes only. Any proprietary information submitted will be protected if appropriately marked. Vendor participation is not a promise for future business with the Government. The purpose of this RFI is to conduct Market Research. Background: DLA Troop Support�s CONUS SPV contractors are responsible for providing full-line food and beverage item distribution support for Garrison type feeding to military, federally funded, and other authorized customers in the regions covered by each contract. DLA Troop Support SPV contractors provide food products such as canned items, dry items, chill items, ultra-high temperature (UHT) dairy items, frozen bakery products, frozen meats, frozen seafood and poultry, ice cream, eggs and other dairy products under the contracts. The vendor�s obligation would end at the CONUS delivery point. Information on current DLA Troop Support CONUS SPV contracts can be found at: http://www.dla.mil/TroopSupport/Subsistence/Foodservices/Regions/CONUS.aspx DLA Troop Support's CONUS SPV Program is interested in your comments regarding SPV support in Missouri and surrounding areas.� There are fifteen (15) expected customers in the Missouri and surrounding area that order when the need arises. All fifteen (15) customers are land-based customers. Discussion: DLA requests responses to the following questions. In your response, please provide company-specific information including, but not limited to, name, address, and CAGE code. Can you support any or all of the customers listed above? Many of the customers expect delivery on a skip-day basis as required by the contract, or 48 hours after placing their orders.� Are there any location limitations in meeting this delivery schedule? Do you have preferred delivery set-ups (routes, grouping of customers) to provide complete food support throughout the state? Some of our customers are remotely located and require smaller pack-size items. �Can this requirement be provided?� Can you provide service to them, regardless of weather conditions?� What method of shipping would be used? Would there be customers who could not be supported if an emergency order is needed (either same day or next day)? Can you support either a five, seven, and/or eight-year contract consisting of 24-month tiered performance (pricing) periods? In what type of business is your company involved � e.g. logistics, food distribution?� Who are your firm�s major customers, e.g. retailers, industrial accounts, commercial accounts? What is the applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) identifier? Is your company a small business concern? Are you registered in SAM.gov?� We encourage and appreciate your participation; please share your ideas regarding these issues. �Your written comments, suggestions, and ideas regarding support for our customers will be treated as confidential and for Government use only.
