Student Nutrition Equipment Services

The Unified School District in Kansas is seeking a vendor to provide specialized student nutrition equipment services. The agency needs to replace an existing disposer and modify the surrounding infrastructure to accommodate a new scrap collector. This project aims to resolve layout and plumbing constraints in the kitchen's dishwashing area to improve operational efficiency. The scope of work requires the disconnect, removal, and proper disposal of the existing disposer. The selected contractor 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 project involves installing new shut-off valves and adding tees in the lines for hot and cold water supply to a new pre-rinse faucet. The contractor must cut out a section of the soiled dish table located after the pass-through window and retractable hose reel. The agency requires the fabrication and installation of a new section of soiled dish table spanning from the pass-through window to the dish machine. Finally, the provider must supply materials to connect the collector to the existing disposer drain or floor sink, and connect the new collector to the existing 208-volt, 3-phase disposer electrical circuit. Eligibility is restricted to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency permits offsite performance for the applicable fabrication portions of the work. The agency is currently looking for proposals to establish the budget, and specific evaluation criteria and key dates are not detailed in the initial solicitation.
