At a normal

DOS

site, cafeterias, snack bars and vending machines are part of a licensor-‐licensee agreement between the Embassy and a contractor, and it is typically a Point of Sale

(POS)

operation.

Embassy personnel

(DOS

employees and contractors) can choose to dine in a

USG

dining facility, go to one of the association-‐managed restaurants on the compound, bring in their lunch, go home to eat, or leave the Embassy compound to eat “on the economy.”

The cafeteria and other food operations within those embassies are served by local contractors, local workers, and the food is purchased from the local economy.

Initially, under ALiSS the meal operations will stay the same—an “all you can eat” buffet and service line, with food primarily sourced through

DLA.

As the program evolves, diners will use meal cards to pay for their meals and the food will come from local, regional and international commercial sources.

As the situation in Afghanistan moves towards a more normalized existence, food operations will be more in line with other embassies and are planned to evolve toward cash payments for meals, snacks, and other food items.

The Contractor will establish and operate the cafeterias in a fixed setting provided by the Government.

The cafeteria will consist of an enclosed and environment-‐controlled space that is fully furnished and has Government Furnished Equipment

(GFE)

that is up-‐to-‐date and fully maintained.

The following is a list of food related services that the contractor will be required to provide (all or in part):

• Cafeteria food preparation

frozen, fresh, dry, canned, etc.)

and consumable items (e.g.

napkins, cleaning supplies, paper plates, etc) acquisition, logistics, delivery and receipt

• Special events support and catering services

• Snack bar operations

• Creation, installation, and operation of meal card system.

C.4.1.1.1 Food Standard

The requirement for food will be Codex Alimentarius.

The Codex Alimentarius ("Book of Food") is a collection of internationally recognized standards, codes of practice, guidelines and other recommendations relating to foods, food production, and food safety.

The Codex Alimentarius is recognized by the World Trade Organization

(WTO)

as an international reference point for the resolution of disputes concerning food safety and consumer protection.
