Food Distribution Division considers purchases from turkey processors who are using bonus turkey to make finished end products for sale to States or recipient agencies to be items available only from a single source. That determination is made because none of the 3 processors are making the same item which could be competitively bid. We are relying on 7 CFR 3016.36 (d)…(4)(i)(A) and (C) as shown below.

(4) Procurement by noncompetitive proposals is procurement through solicitation of a proposal from only one source, or after solicitation of a number of sources, competition is determined inadequate.

(i) Procurement by noncompetitive proposals may be used only when the award of a contract is infeasible under small purchase procedures, sealed bids or competitive proposals and one of the following circumstances applies:

(A) The item is available only from a single source;

(B) The public exigency or emergency for the requirement will not permit a delay resulting from competitive solicitation;

(C) The awarding agency authorizes noncompetitive proposals;

We will not require States or school districts to go through a competitive process to take advantage of the finished end products that contain "bonus" turkey produced by House of Raeford, Culinary Standards, or JTM Foods. As long as you agree on price with the processor, you are free to purchase the finished product.

As FNS continues to provide raw "bonus" commodities to processors, States and recipient agencies can adapt this to other commodities such as non fat dry milk (NFDM). However, if 2 or more processors are making like products such as macaroni and cheese using bonus commodity, a competitive procurement would be in order.

Frozen Breast Meat, bulk-packed boneless and skinless turkey breast meat to be processed into user-friendly end items. State agencies may be contacted by turkey processors seeking orders for further processed items. Such agreements are not mandatory, and are made solely between the State Recipient Agency and the processor, with no involvement by USDA. This product is fully substitutable for other breast meat products. Processors may choose to substitute the bulk-pack boneless and skinless turkey breast meat for other breast meat items.

We intend to put all the bulk frozen breast meat product into a USDA account for selected processors to be used in finished end products. The processors are Culinary Standards, House of Raeford, and JTM Provisions. If you wish to take advantage of the finished products produced from these processors you must ensure that you have a current State participation agreement in place with the processor. The finished product will be sold at a discount based on the pounds of turkey used to produce the finished case, or at a fee for service. Any new products will require a new End product data schedule and SEPDS. Our intent is to move the bulk turkey as soon as possible, so we will allow the processors to sell their finished products on a first come first serve basis. Processors should produce finished cases under guaranteed minimum yield and put those finished cases into the USDA finished case inventory. As those cases are delivered to any eligible recipient agency, the processor will transfer finished cases from the USDA to the appropriate State account and then immediately draw down those cases to properly account for usage on Part B of the State Monthly performance reports and the USDA MPR.

The delivery periods for the bulk product is May 31, 2009 through September 30, 2009.
