USDA is requesting offers through an invitation for bid for commercial Frozen Vegetable Products (Potatoes), and this announcement is the only solicitation; no separate written solicitation will be issued. The acquisition is not set aside for small business, and clauses/provisions are incorporated by reference with full text available at www.acquisition.gov. Interested parties with concerns should first submit them to the Contracting Officer, who will attempt to respond or resolve within 10 business days, though Tier 1 does not pause deadlines, delay award, or suspend performance. If unresolved, a written agency protest may be filed with the Contracting Officer or USDA Independent Review Authority, with USDA aiming to resolve agency-level protests within 35 business days and generally suspending award or performance during the protest unless urgent/compelling or best-interest justification applies. Protests must include FAR 33.104-4(a)(3) information, be submitted electronically to SPE.inquiry@usda.gov and the Contracting Officer, and filing with USDA precludes a simultaneous GAO or other external protest on the same matter.
