Student Nutrition Equipment Services

The Unified School District in Kansas is seeking a qualified vendor to perform student nutrition equipment services. The agency needs to replace an existing disposer with a new scrap collector and modify the surrounding kitchen infrastructure to accommodate the new setup. This project aims to update the dishwashing area to ensure efficient and compliant kitchen operations. The scope of work requires the vendor to disconnect, remove, and properly dispose of the existing disposer. The vendor must reroute and modify water supply lines for the dish machine, drain quench, hose reel, and backflow preventer to clear space for the new scrap collector. Additionally, the vendor must install new shut-off valves as required and add tees in the lines for hot and cold water supply to a new pre-rinse faucet. The project also covers cutting out a section of the soiled dish table after the pass-through window and retractable hose reel to install a new section of soiled dish table extending to the dish machine. The vendor must provide all materials to connect the collector to the existing disposer drain or the floor sink under the dish machine, depending on which option is more suitable at the time of installation. Finally, the vendor must provide materials and connect the new collector to the existing 208-volt, 3-phase disposer electrical circuit. Only onshore organizations based in the United States are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The performance of the physical fabrication work will occur offsite. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is looking for proposals to determine the cost. Key dates and specific evaluation criteria are not specified in the project details.
