## Description

Amendment 01 Subsistence Network BAA 004-21 is hereby amended for clarification regarding the Evaluation Rating Scheme. SUBNET will have a wide-spread focus on solutions to develop and promote manufacturing improvements in the subsistence supply chain. The program goals are to leverage the latest technologies, encourage innovation and modernization, and to maximize capability and capacity in subsistence.

The program engages all elements of the supply chain including the DoD combat ration producers, commercial food suppliers, academia, and other industry and federal agencies to research, leverage, implement, and transition improved technologies in the subsistence supply chain. The research seeks identification and test of low-risk, high-impact technology, quality and process improvements of the individual and group combat rations, and improvements in subsistence products or equipment.

The SUBNET short term projects should result in such measures as reduced cost, increased efficiencies, and improved surge demand capabilities. These improvements will transition to industrial base suppliers, military services, and the warfighters.

Research projects shall involve current trends related to combat rations, field feeding solutions, food equipment, food footprint, food innovations, food safety and defense; garrison feeding, nutrition and health, storage and packaging solutions, water security, subsistence supplies condition monitoring during shipments, and additional topics.
