For this acquisition DLA Troop Support anticipates using the following evaluation technique:

1. Use of Low Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) source selection procedures, with all evaluation factors and significant subfactors that will affect contract award, clearly stated in the solicitation.
2. Use of tiered pricing periods instead of structuring contracts with a base period and option period(s).
3. Evaluation of weighted distribution prices when evaluating competing proposal prices.

Following are specific questions to consider:

1. Can you support any or all of the customers listed above? Many of the customers expect delivery 48 hours after placing their orders.  Are there any location limitations in meeting this delivery schedule?
2. Do you have preferred delivery set-ups (routes, grouping of customers) to provide complete food support throughout the state?
3. 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?
4. Would there be customers who could not be supported if an emergency order is needed (either same day or next day)?
5. Please confirm if your facility is capable and willing to complete a long-term 5-year contract.

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. Please provide your responses via email, by Ocotober 19, 2022, at 3:00 p.m. Philadelphia Local Time to the following email addresses: Lender Walker at Lender.Walker@dla.mil.
