The airport's main terminal building is home to various tenants that provide specific services to our passengers as they begin or arrive on their respective flights. One service provided within the building is food, beverage, and goods through vending machines strategically placed within the building. These specialized services are provided by a contractor, which their agreement is set to expire in January 2021.
Through close coordination with the Purchasing Department, the airport completed a Request for Proposal (RFP) in order to receive the best qualified vendor to provide these critical services. On Monday, November 9th, the Purchasing Department under a competitive bidding process received three sealed bids. A selection committee was formed to further evaluate each bid’s responsiveness as outlined in the RFP and has determined DC Vending and Distribution is the most responsive to provide food, beverages, and goods to customers in the main terminal building. Upon execution of the concessionaire agreement, DC Vending and Distribution will update the airport's vending machines with healthy snacks and beverages while increasing the terminal building's amenities for passengers. |
