This memo clarifies the small purchase threshold applicable to procurements under FNS programs.
The purpose of this memorandum is to emphasize the importance of the state agency and school food authority oversight and monitoring of contracts with food service management companies and to provide guidance for these activities.
This report describes findings from the evaluation of the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Pilot Program conducted during the 2010– 2011 school year. The evaluation had two components: (1) an impact study to estimate program impacts on participating elementary students and schools; and (2) an implementation study to examine how the FFVP operates in the selected elementary schools.
The purpose of this memorandum is to call attention to previously published memoranda providing clarification on the requirement to oversee and monitor school food authority contracts with Food Service Management Companies and to ensure ongoing technical assistance and training provided by state agencies includes this information.
