New Mexico Army National Guard (NMARNG) Dining Facility (DFAC) Food Services

The New Mexico Army National Guard is issuing a Sources Sought Notice (RFI) to gather market input for a future firm‑fixed‑price contract to operate the 515th RTI dining facility at the Santa Fe Training Complex. The effort will cover full food‑service operations—including staffing, management, uniforms, cleaning, and compliance with military food codes—for an anticipated four‑year period (one base year plus three option years). The government seeks feedback on optimal CLIN structures, pricing models for intermittent training cycles, and handling of pre‑cycle, post‑cycle, and surge activities. • Provides full‑service dining for ~800–1,000 soldiers annually across Basic Leader Course, Motor Transport Operator Course, and Officer Candidate School. • Requires 14‑hour daily coverage on active training days, with additional pre‑ and post‑cycle duties and occasional remote‑site meal staging. • Government supplies the facility, kitchen equipment, utilities, and subsistence; contractor handles labor, management, and compliance. • Opportunity is a market research exercise; no award is guaranteed, and respondents must submit a capability statement and pricing recommendations by 28 Oct 2026.
