About this opportunity
The County of Kenosha, Wisconsin Purchasing Division is soliciting proposals for a comprehensive food service operation contract at Brookside Care Center, a skilled nursing facility located at 3506 Washington Road in Kenosha. The selected contractor will assume full-service dietary operations management for approximately 178 active residents across the Brookside Care Center and adjacent Willowbrook Assisted Living facility, delivering meal planning, food preparation, bistro services, nutritional support, specialized diet preparations, and community event catering. Key deliverables include the development of cyclical menus, food safety management protocols, daily bistro operations, and ensuring compliance with Wisconsin HHS 132 Code and CMS regulations. The contractor must provide all labor, food, and supply costs, with the County reimbursing actual food and supply expenses based on itemized invoices. Evaluation criteria are weighted as follows: cost (20 points), company profile (10 points), operational plan (30 points), staffing plan (20 points), and menu offerings (20 points). A pre-proposal conference is scheduled for April 22, 2026 at 9:00 AM at Brookside Care Center, with sealed proposals due no later than 1:00 PM on May 20, 2026. The contract term runs from January 1, 2027 through December 31, 2031, with an estimated award date of June 30, 2026.
The RFP documentation does not specify set-asides or restrictions limiting competition to particular business classifications or disadvantaged enterprises. The County retains four existing dietary staff members—one Cook at 0.8 FTE and three Dietary Service Aides at 1.0 FTE each—who will transition to the contractor's employment and be phased out through natural attrition, with compensation adjustments to be negotiated as replacements are hired. The County provides all facility infrastructure, equipment as listed in Exhibit A, utilities, building maintenance, and heavy cleaning services, while the contractor assumes responsibility for routine sanitation, employee staffing and training, computer systems management, and regulatory compliance. Insurance requirements include Commercial General Liability ($3,000,000 per occurrence/$5,000,000 aggregate), Professional Liability ($1,000,000), Automobile Liability ($1,000,000), and Workers Compensation at statutory limits, with Kenosha County named as additional insured. No specific award value or budget range is disclosed in the available documentation.
