This is a combined synopsis/solicitation inviting offers for commercial products—specifically buttery spread and butter—for use in federal food and nutrition assistance programs. The acquisition is issued as an Invitation for Bid (IFB) and is not set aside for small business concerns. No separate written solicitation will be issued; the announcement itself serves as the solicitation, with all applicable provisions and clauses incorporated by reference and accessible online. The notice also describes USDA’s protest procedures, encouraging interested parties to use the agency’s Ombudsman program and alternative dispute resolution processes before pursuing external forums. Formal agency protests are subject to a 35-calendar-day resolution goal, and award/performance may be suspended during the protest period unless justified otherwise.
