RE: |
Renewal of Contract for Bread for 2009-10 School Year
|
|
On June 10, 2008, the Board of Education awarded a contract to Flowers Baking Company, Jamestown, NC to supply bread for the school nutrition services program during the 2008-09 school year. The contract was for one year with an option to renew for up to four additional years.
During 2008-09, Flowers Baking Company has complied with all contract terms and specifications. The estimated cost of the contract for the 2009-10 school year is $385,000 (estimate based on prior year’s utilization/consumption). The price of the 2008-09 contract was $371,852.80. The change in price is due to anticipated increase in consumption due to switching from brown wheat to white wheat. Staff consulted with North Carolina Department of Public Instruction staff who deemed this change to be an immaterial change to the contract.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends renewing the contract with Flowers Baking Company to supply bread for the school nutrition services program for the 2009-10 school year.
