Description

The Omaha Public Schools (OPS) is seeking a vendor to supply, deliver, install, and commission ten (10) commercial‑grade “Cook and Hold Hot Box” cabinets for use in school food service operations. The cabinets must meet detailed technical specifications—including 12 kW power, 350 °F max temperature, stainless‑steel construction, NSF/CSA‑US certification, and integrated water‑reservoir and safety features—and be delivered to the OPS warehouse in Omaha. The contract requires a lump‑sum price covering product, delivery, installation, warranty, and all related documentation (SDS, HAACP paperwork, warranty sheets, lead‑time). The successful vendor must also assume risk of loss/damage until OPS acceptance and provide a minimum warranty as outlined in the solicitation. • Quantity: 10 heated “cook‑and‑hold” hot‑box cabinets (minimum model Cres Cor RO151FWUA18DX or equivalent). • Technical specs: 12 kW, 208 V 3‑phase, 350 °F max, 4‑gal water reservoir, stainless‑steel, 4‑inch casters, LED digital controls, NSF/CSA‑US/Energy‑Star certified, HAACP documentation. • Delivery/Installation: FOB Omaha, NE; installation on‑site; delivery within 60 days of contract award; delivery window 8:00 a.m.–2:30 p.m. CT on business days. • Documentation required: product spec sheet, warranty, safety data sheets, HAACP paperwork, lead‑time sheet; contractor bears all risk until acceptance.

Budget estimate

$40,000 – $80,000

The specification calls for ten commercial‑grade hot‑box units. Market pricing for comparable units ranges from $4,000 to $8,000 each, depending on brand, features, and warranty terms. Assuming a mid‑range price of $6,000 per unit, the total contract value would be roughly $60,000. Adding delivery, installation, and documentation costs could push the total toward $70,000‑$80,000. Therefore a reasonable earnings estimate for the vendor would be between $40,000 (lower‑end pricing and minimal installation effort) and $80,000 (higher‑end pricing with full service).
