Community-Based Mobile and Pop-Up Fresh Food Market Services

Central Health requires a vendor to deliver community-based mobile and pop-up fresh food market services in Austin, Texas. The selected vendor must offer recurring market services that accept SNAP/EBT, utilize incentive programs like Double Up Food Bucks, build regional grower relationships, conduct culturally responsive outreach, and supply program evaluation data. Onshore U.S. organizations are eligible to bid, provided they hold required certifications, comply with transport and inspection regulations, and can accept SNAP/EBT at launch or present an acceptable implementation plan. Interested parties may attend an optional pre-proposal conference on October 20, 2026, at 2:00 PM Central Time and submit questions by October 22, 2026, at 5:00 PM Central Time. Proposals are due November 3, 2026, at 2:00 PM Central Time via Bidnet or in person. Submissions must include required forms such as the Letter of Transmittal, Narrative Prompts, HUB Form, CIQ, and Insurance Coverage Form. The evaluation process incorporates pass/fail criteria and scored narrative prompts, with short-listed finalists potentially giving presentations. The initial contract term spans one year, with four optional one-year renewals.
