Durham Public Schools (DPS) has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Front and Back of House Management Software (RFP# 179-2324-242-CNS_MGMT_SOFTWARE). The software is required to manage the operations of DPS's School Nutrition Services, which serves 56 schools across Durham County, North Carolina. The selected solution must integrate with DPS's existing Sylogist software and provide features such as inventory management, menu planning, production records, student eligibility tracking, and online payment processing. Proposals are due by May 2, 2024 at 1:00 pm, and DPS intends to award the contract to a single vendor, though it reserves the right to make separate awards or cancel the RFP. The initial contract term is one year, with the option to renew for up to four additional one-year terms. Vendors must provide financial stability certifications and references, and proposals will be evaluated based on the vendor's experience, proposed software features and functionality, and total cost.

The RFP does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendor or current contractor is not mentioned. The RFP does not provide a budget range, but it outlines a fixed-fee pricing structure for the software and related services.
