The U.S. Army Installation Management Command (IMCOM) NAF Contracting Office, on behalf of the U.S. Army Materiel Command's Army Food Innovation and Transformation Program Office, seeks to establish one firm-fixed-price Indefinite Delivery-Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) concession contract for financing, designing, building out/renovating, and operating Campus Style Dining Venues at U.S. Army Garrison locations in Hawaii, with proposals due August 28, 2026. This is a Non-Appropriated Fund (NAF) solicitation not subject to FAR provisions; it is governed by AR 215-4.

Place of performance is Schofield Barracks, Hawaii (Building 780, Sustainment Bistro as the initial venue), with expansion options to Fort Shafter Building 503, Schofield Barracks Buildings 2085 and 357, and Wheeler Army Airfield Building 102. The base period runs five years with five one-year option periods for potential ten-year total term. NAICS 722310 (Food Service Contractors); PSC M1FD (Operation of Dining Facilities).

The contractor must finance all facility renovations, provide all labor and materials (except specified government-furnished equipment), employ a certified Head Chef and Dietitian at each location, implement Point-of-Sale systems compatible with the Army Food Management Information System (AFMIS), and maintain 24/7 food service with extended operating hours. All food procurement must source from the United States to the maximum extent practicable, with specific prohibitions on seafood from China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. Compensation consists of monthly reimbursement at established Meal Discount Rates plus operating costs (35 percent meal cost/65 percent operating cost) for Essential Station Messing (ESM) soldiers, plus a monthly flat fee from the NAFI. The pre-proposal conference and site visit are May 27–28, 2026. A Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA-2026-255, Honolulu County) applies, with prevailing wage rates ranging from $21.25 to $25.40 per hour for food service positions.
