(Feb 20 to Feb 21) Does your firm have the operational capacity or ability to expand to handle this requirement?� Is your firm a large or small business concern? (Small business being defined as a firm that employs less than 500 employees). In what type of business is your company involved � e.g. logistics, food distribution?� Who are your firm�s major customers, e.g Retailers, industrial accounts, and commercial accounts? What is the applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) identifier? Does your firm have an existing facility by which you would be operating? If so, is it currently used for commercial or other business, and if so, what type of business? Prime Vendor support includes the ability to source food items, to receive and consolidate materials, warehousing and inventory management, transportation capabilities, the ability to accept customer orders electronically and provide delivery, and the ability to maintain a quality assurance program.� Can you provide Prime Vendor support to our customers located in Hawaii (which include, but are not limited to land-based customers in approximately 65 different locations, Navy Ships, Combat Stores Ships (T-AFS ships), the Department of Education, and other approved military and federal customers)? Do you have any long-term contracts with customers and/or suppliers in this AOR?� If yes, please provide a description of the type of work and nature of the contracts.� Would you be able to support a long term contract with a length of 5 years?� If no, please explain why.� For example, is it due to pricing concerns, disinterest in an extensive commitment, and/or subcontract concerns?
