This food service includes daily meals for all inmates, <br />inmate commissary, and operation of the staff cafeteria in the Police <br />Administration facility. As a result, staff prepared and distributed a <br />Request for Proposal (RFP) seeking the most qualified and cost effective <br />food service program. RFPs were sent to three vendors. Of the three <br />vendors who requested the RFP's only one, Aramark Correctional Services, <br />Inc, responded to the inmate and police facility food service portion of <br />the bid. The remaining two vendors elected to only participate in the <br />inmate commissary portion of the proposal. <br />The Police Department staff recommends Aramark Correctional Services, Inc, <br />for the inmate food services as well as the operation of the staff <br />cafeteria and catering services. Aramark is the current vendor for these <br />services and has preformed satisfactorily. Under the terms of the <br />agreement Aramark will provide 3 meals per day at a rate of $1.95 per meal. <br />25L-1 <br />
