10-Appendix 9 - List of AISD School Locations and Key Drop Sites.pdf

This is a list of school locations and key drop sites for the Austin Independent School District (AISD) Food Service department, which supports a Request for Proposals (RFP) for fresh produce and a la carte beverages procurement. The document identifies all AISD facilities that will receive deliveries of fresh fruits, vegetables, and beverages from the awarded vendor(s). These locations serve as the distribution points where the contracted supplier must deliver products on an ongoing basis while maintaining acceptable fill rates, customer service levels, and product quality standards as specified in the RFP's Bid Tables (Attachments A and B).

The file establishes the geographic scope and delivery requirements for potential vendors responding to the procurement opportunity. Vendors must have the physical infrastructure, logistical capabilities, and financial resources to serve as a commercial distributor capable of sourcing, purchasing, storing, and delivering products to all listed AISD locations. The procurement emphasizes that third-party logistics companies are not acceptable; only established commercial distributors with direct supply capabilities will be considered. The district's vendor selection criteria reflect its commitment to the Good Food Purchasing Program, prioritizing quality products, reduced food transportation distances, labor law compliance, environmental sustainability, and support for ethical producers and farming practices.
