DISCUSSION
The existing agreement for the Jail inmate food services program expires in
February 2007. This food service includes daily meals for all inmates,
inmate commissary, and operation of the staff cafeteria in the Police
Administration facility. As a result, staff prepared and distributed a
Request for Proposal (RFP) seeking the most qualified and cost effective
food service program. RFPs were sent to three vendors. Of the three
vendors who requested the RFP's only one, Aramark Correctional Services,
Inc, responded to the inmate and police facility food service portion of
the bid. The remaining two vendors elected to only participate in the
inmate commissary portion of the proposal.
The Police Department staff recommends Aramark Correctional Services, Inc,
for the inmate food services as well as the operation of the staff
cafeteria and catering services. Aramark is the current vendor for these
services and has preformed satisfactorily. Under the terms of the
agreement Aramark will provide 3 meals per day at a rate of $1.95 per meal.
