    • Database of retail grocery panel data:  The contractor shall provide access to a database of retail grocery panel data that includes a representative sample of households of which at least one person is an active-duty member of the military, a military veteran with commissary shopping privileges, or a disabled veteran with commissary shopping privileges.  The panel data shall include a full range of demographic data, shopping behaviors, and shopping metrics.
    • Retail Grocery Competitors:  The contractor shall provide a tool to track retail grocery competitors within a specified distance, for CONUS, including Alaska and Hawaii, and OCOUNS commissary locations.  The tool shall allow for an individually variable radius to be measured around each commissary location with specific data including, but not limited to, store banner, physical address, store format (i.e., grocery, supercenter, club store), monthly sales by total volume, and monthly sales by grocery volume.
