Budget estimate

$5,000,000 – $15,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose the contract value. Comparable university dining service contracts in the Midwest typically range from $5 million to $15 million per year, depending on the number of facilities, meal counts, and service level. Assuming a 3‑year term, the total award could be between $15 million and $45 million. Factors influencing the final amount include the number of campus locations, expected student/faculty population, menu complexity, and any additional ancillary services (e.g., catering, retail).
