Description
The City of New York’s Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) is procuring a one‑year Requirements Contract to supply the Department of Correction with a broad range of dairy, egg, non‑dairy, and cheese products. Vendors must submit a fully completed bid sheet in PASSPort, meet strict NYC food‑standards (no artificial sweeteners, trans‑fat free, sodium limits), and satisfy NY‑state sourcing requirements for many items. The award will result in a unit‑price, FOB‑Destination contract with quarterly price adjustments based on USDA milk and egg indexes.
• Scope includes dry milk powder, fluid milk (skimmed and low‑fat), Greek yogurt, various cheeses, fresh large eggs, soy‑bean milk, and trans‑fat‑free margarine.
• All bids must be submitted electronically by 11:00 a.m. ET on 10 Oct 2026; vendors are urged to submit at least 48 hours early to avoid technical issues.
• The contract period runs from 1 Jan 2027 to 31 Dec 2027, with delivery to the DOC facilities (e.g., Riker’s Island) and mandatory documentation (nutrition labels, NY‑state sourcing proof, halal/kosher certificates) due within 7 calendar days of any City request.
