CTR072628_Amendment_3_-_Common_Fare_Change.pdf

Amendment No. 3 to contract CTR072628 is a modification document between Aramark Correctional Services and the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation & Reentry, located in Phoenix, Arizona. The amendment is specifically related to Food Services Management and involves changes to the Common Fare-Kosher Meat pricing.

The amendment increases the price of a Common Fare-Kosher Meal from $2.92 to $4.86, representing an estimated annual increase of over $1 million. Aramark is proposing a transition to their "My Own Meals" program, which offers individually packaged, Kosher-certified meat entrées in 10oz plastic pouches. These pre-packaged meals are shelf-stable, fully cooked, and ready to eat, with options including Beef Stew, Chicken Mediterranean, Chicken & Black Beans, and other varieties. The company believes this change meets the department's needs and is the most cost-effective option, and they are seeking the department's cooperation in implementing the new meal program.
