About this file
This is a Questions and Answers (Q&A) document for the FBI Headquarters Cafeteria and Food Services contract (Solicitation 20260), documenting 71 questions from offerors and corresponding government responses. The contract is a Firm-Fixed Price (FFP), no-cost contract where the successful vendor assumes all profit and loss responsibility for cafeteria operations, with a Time and Materials (T&M) cost element available for repair and replacement of existing equipment. The contract covers food service operations at the J. Edgar Hoover (JEH) Building in Washington, DC, serving approximately 4,000 federal employees and contractors, with potential expansion to other National Capital Region locations at the government's discretion.
Key operational requirements include: managing a full cafeteria, Starbucks franchise (government-owned equipment except POS; new vendor must establish independent franchise agreement), and Dunkin' franchise (all equipment currently contractor-owned); operating Grab & Go self-service 24 hours on the 8th floor cafeteria; providing debit, credit, and cash payment acceptance with hardwired POS systems only (no wireless); maintaining one full-time manager across all locations; supporting approximately 15 special functions annually and courtyard events (~2 times yearly); coordinating with FBI O&M for equipment maintenance under a case-by-case repair versus replacement model; and complying with extensive security requirements including U.S. citizenship, staggered security clearances (2 weeks for escorted access; 6-12+ months for unescorted), registered devices only, and no wireless/Bluetooth connectivity. The government will not provide historical revenue data, current staffing levels, or complete 12-month transaction data (only April-October 2025 provided), though a Collective Bargaining Agreement will be provided separately. A draft award-fee plan will not be disclosed prior to award, though performance metrics will align with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP).
