Processed Commodities

This contract establishes a school‑year commodity‑pricing schedule for Washington County Public Schools (Maryland) for the 2019‑2020 academic year. The district solicited competitive bids (Bid 2019‑06) and awarded multiple vendors to supply a broad portfolio of food items—including meats, cheeses, produce, bakery goods, prepared meals, snacks, and beverages—on a case‑price basis. Each vendor’s pricing includes a case price, a commercial price, applicable discounts, and any service or delivery fees. The award is a multi‑vendor, price‑schedule agreement that enables the district to purchase quantities as needed throughout the school year at the pre‑negotiated rates. • Multi‑vendor award: over two dozen vendors received at least one commodity award. • Commodity focus: bulk food service items for K‑12 nutrition programs (meats, cheeses, vegetables, bakery, snacks, etc.). • Pricing structure: case‑price with commercial price and discount factors; some items have per‑pound or per‑serving service fees. • Duration: tied to the 2019‑2020 school year (July 2019 – June 2020) though exact start/end dates are not specified. • Procurement method: full and open competition with no set‑aside restrictions noted.
