Justification & Award

The sole-source action is justified under 41 USC 1901 as implemented in FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). The intended awardee, Food Service Logistic, LLC, is a WOSB that operates the conference center at Camp Blanding and is deemed capable of efficiently providing the required meals. The justification also notes that NAICS 722320 (Caterers) is underrepresented by WOSBs, further supporting this sole-source award. The estimated total price is expected to be under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT). Future requirements for similar services will be considered for full and open competition with a 100% small business set-aside.
