About this opportunity
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking a vendor to establish and operate a food service concession inside the DARPA Headquarters building located in Arlington, Virginia. The contract will be awarded on a best value basis considering the offeror's proposed concept, operations, and business/corporate/personnel experience and past performance. Key requirements include providing high-quality, fresh, and sustainable food options; maintaining strict sanitation and food safety standards; staffing the cafeteria during specified operating hours; and implementing efficient service operations. Proposals are due by November 25, 2024, and DARPA may conduct exchanges with offerors prior to award.
There is no set-aside associated with this opportunity, and DARPA does not have an incumbent currently providing these services, as the existing concession is a Grab-N-Go market only. The contract will be a no-cost agreement, where the vendor receives the right to sell food products to DARPA employees in exchange for not paying rent or utilities. DARPA will not evaluate price/cost beyond the proposed menu prices and does not have historical transaction data or specific customer feedback to provide. The anticipated start date is January 6, 2025, with an initial 5-year term and three 5-year renewal options available.
