Description

Kentucky State University is seeking a single qualified vendor to provide “non‑vending fountain” beverage products and the associated dispensing equipment for a five‑year exclusive partnership. The vendor will supply a national‑brand line of carbonated and non‑carbonated drinks, install and maintain dispensing equipment with a four‑hour on‑site repair guarantee, deliver products to campus under strict loading constraints, and manage all related advertising, branding, and promotional activities. In‑kind product contributions and financial sponsorships to both the university at large and its athletic department are required, with optional renewal terms of up to three one‑year extensions. The contract is firm‑fixed unit‑price, with a technical and cost evaluation scoring system totaling 4,000 points.

Budget estimate

$10,000,000 – $25,000,000

The RFP does not disclose a contract ceiling, but a five‑year exclusive beverage partnership for a mid‑size public university typically ranges from $2 million to $5 million in annual spend on product, equipment, maintenance, and sponsorship commitments. Assuming the university’s total annual beverage spend averages $3 million, the total contract value (including in‑kind contributions) would be roughly $15 million over five years, with possible extensions adding $3 million‑$5 million each. Therefore, a reasonable estimate for the vendor’s revenue from this award is $10 million to $25 million over the contract term.
