Description
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is seeking information from contractors capable of providing catering services for official conferences and meetings at the NIST site in Boulder, CO. The services may be provided on-site or off-site, and the contractor must be located within 50 miles of the NIST Boulder Campus. The contract will have a period of performance of one year with four one-year option periods. The Government is seeking responses from responsible small business sources, and the information received may be used to support acquisition strategy decisions.
Some key points to consider include:
• The NIST site in Boulder, CO, does not have an onsite cafeteria, and catering services are needed for pre-registered participants and invited guests.
• Attendee numbers will vary by events, ranging from 20 to 325 attendees, and events will be 1-5 days long.
• The Government Travel Regulations set the maximum limits for meals, with a continental breakfast costing $20 per person and lunch costing $22 per person.
• The contractor must adhere to these limitations to the maximum extent practicable.
• The submission requirements include a written capability statement, company information, and prior experience performing similar services.
