The Department of Justice, through the Federal Bureau of Prisons at the Federal Medical Center (FMC) in Lexington, Kentucky, is soliciting proposals for sugar supplies for the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. The procurement requires delivery of sugar items from January 2, 2025, to January 17, 2025, with all shipments to be made to the Food Service at FMC Lexington, and the contract will be awarded based on best value criteria including price, past performance, and quality. This opportunity is particularly significant as it emphasizes the government's commitment to engaging small businesses through a Total Small Business Set-Aside, ensuring compliance with federal standards and security measures throughout the procurement process. Interested vendors must submit their completed proposals by December 6, 2024, at 2:00 PM Eastern Standard Time, to Dawn Hadden at dhadden@bop.gov, and are reminded to include the completed SF-1449 document to avoid being deemed non-responsive.
