Admin Seeks Innovative Food Service Options for the Capitol Complex

2/16/2017 11:21:34 AM

Saint Paul, MN — The Minnesota Department of Administration has issued a request for proposal to provide the food service on the Minnesota State Capitol Complex including the Minnesota State Capitol’s historic Rathskeller.

In addition to pricing, the solicitation invites vendors to propose innovative options for food service operations, including:

  • using only one, a few, or all of the locations,
  • changing the format of food service at any of the locations, or
  • changing the menu offerings at any of the locations.

The Capitol Complex currently has seven cafeterias. The newly renovated Capitol will lead to expanded opportunities on the Capitol Complex, including after hours events at the Capitol and catering opportunities, which may include the sale of beer and wine.

For more information see the complete solicitation on our website at http://www.mmd.admin.state.mn.us/solicitations.htm, reference number 24567. A mandatory site visit will be held for all interested responders to review the cafeteria sites on February 24, 2017 at 9 AM Central Time in Conference Room 116C at the Minnesota Administration Building. Attendees must send an RSVP to Chris.Marquette@state.mn.us. Responses are due March 17, 2017 at 3 PM Central Time.
