RFQu 2020200003 Catering Services Qualified Pool

The City of Eugene, Oregon is issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQu) to establish a pool of qualified Catering Services providers. The City intends to award contracts to multiple contractors to provide catering services for private and public events held at the Hult Center for the Performing Arts and other City departments. Qualifications may be submitted at any time prior to January 31, 2025 and will be reviewed as they are submitted. Inclusion in the pool does not guarantee a contract, but the City may issue contracts to pool participants as needed. The catering services required include buffets, plated lunches and dinners, desserts, snacks, and specialty requests as specified by event presenters. Offerors must submit qualifications that include a statement of qualifications, completed questionnaire, sample menu, client references, independent contractor certification, and standard qualification form. Previously accepted offerors will be automatically included in the new pool if their statement of qualifications is less than three years old.

The RFQu does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The procurement does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it mention any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFQu also does not provide any information on possible award values or budget ranges.
