Contract value

$8,000,000

The notice does not disclose any contract value. A typical full‑service dining contract for a medium‑size public university in Virginia ranges from $5 million to $10 million annually, depending on student population and scope of services (cafeterias, retail outlets, catering, etc.). Assuming a 3‑year term (common for such agreements) and mid‑range annual spend, a reasonable ballpark estimate is roughly $8 million total. This estimate accounts for labor, food procurement, equipment maintenance, and administrative overhead.
