- Description
- This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR subpart 12.6, 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 perishable and non-perishable food 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. 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. The government is looking for qualified companies to provide perishable and non-perishable food/subsistence to the Michigan Army National Guard. Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) will be established with any eligible contractor that is able to meet our requirements. These contractors shall have a store front for soldiers to order and pick up food throughout all of Michigan. In the event of an urgent need, the contracting officer will negotiate with one contractor on a sole source basis which may include delivery to Camp Grayling.
