3. TAB A Waco - Commission Percentage.docx

This is a Commission Percentage specification document for the Texas Workforce Commission's (TWC) Waco vending services contract, an administrative contract for a revenue-generating Request for Proposal. The contract covers vending machine services across multiple service sites in the Waco area, with the current contract expiring on September 16, 2026. Bidders must submit commission percentages for three categories of vended products: drinks (65% of machine mix), snacks (30% of machine mix), and miscellaneous items (5% of machine mix). All percentages must be completed for a bid to be considered eligible, and the submitted commission rates will remain fixed throughout the entire contract term.

The evaluation will utilize a weighted average formula that multiplies each bidder's proposed commission percentage for each machine type by its corresponding weighted percentage allocation to determine contract award. TWC has established a baseline of $8,950 in gross monthly sales from all vending machines in the Waco contract area. The incumbent contractor currently offers 27% commission for drinks, 17% for snacks, and 5% for miscellaneous items. Additional details regarding specific vending locations and pricing information are referenced in Attachment 4 (Vending Price List) and Attachment 12 (Area Site Locations) of the Proposal Form.
