- Description
- The Michigan National Guard is issuing a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in Subpart 12.603, FAR 13, and supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued.� A Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) will be established for catered meals for the Michigan Army National Guard. A BPA is not a binding contract but an agreement; thus prices must be set prior to any orders being placed against the BPA at the time of issuing a Task Order.� Additionally, either party has the choice to terminate or re-negotiate an agreement provided a 30-day notification is given.� BPAs period of performance is usually for a five-year period unless terminated by either party or the BPA Master dollar limit has been met.

Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) will be established with no more than five companies that are able to meet our requirements in accordance with Attachment A � Performance Work Statement (PWS).� The BPA holder shall provide services, supplies, labor, supervision, and subsistence to ensure proper execution of catered meal services.
