Description

The Newark Board of Education is seeking a firm‑fixed‑price, one‑year “Open Market” contract (with an optional one‑year renewal) to supply all food items required for its 71 school cafeterias and home‑economics classrooms. The contract is unrestricted, allowing any qualified vendor to bid, and the award will be based on the lowest responsible bid. Vendors must provide unit‑priced quotations, submit samples of every alternate brand, and deliver directly inside each school during specified delivery windows. All food must meet HACCP, USDA/FSIS, and New Jersey Board of Health standards, and must be FOB Destination with freight included. The district will issue purchase orders after award; there is no pre‑funded contract amount.

Budget estimate

$1,000,000 – $3,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose a total contract value. Based on 71 schools, each requiring daily breakfast and lunch supplies for roughly 180 school days, a modest estimate of $15‑$25 per student per day translates to an annual spend between $1 million and $3 million. Therefore, a vendor could reasonably expect to earn within that range, depending on the unit prices quoted and the actual quantities ordered.
