KCC requests that service providers responding to the RFP provide at least one sample of a college or university facility master plan and a list of references.

2. NATURE OF SERVICES REQUIRED

Campus Facility Plan Vision

Klamath Community College is valued as a cornerstone of the community for affordability, equitable student success, innovation, and financial stewardship.

This Campus Facility Plan will guide the development of facilities to create a sense of place on its campuses that establishes Klamath Community College as committed to being inclusive and offering a full range of education and training in a supportive environment to advance personal and professional growth. We are a community hub for cultural, economic, recreational, and intellectual enrichment. The Campus Facilities Plan will create a focused overall approach for Klamath Community College by integrating the goals and objectives in the College's Strategic Plan, Academic Plan, and Strategic Enrollment Management Plan.

The College will maintain a physical environment for students, employees, and community members that is inclusive, safe, clean, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing and supports a progressive exchange of thoughts and ideas.

Plan Concepts

Accessibility & Inclusion – Pursue continuous improvement toward the goal of universal access & inclusivity, creating an equitable, safe, clean, comfortable, and aesthetically pleasing environment.

Community – Make boundaries inviting and transparent and provide a sense of arrival. Create an environment that facilitates social interaction, encourages belonging, and promotes a sense of place, peace, and community. No significant changes to our current boundary are proposed; instead, we "recreate ourselves in place."

Learning & Achievement – Create collaborative spaces that encourage learning and excitement around academics by minimizing distraction from aging buildings, infusing new spaces with advanced technology, and improving existing buildings' quality, efficiency, and space allocation.

Student Life – Renew the relationship and focus on student life. Create, renovate, rebuild, or restore outdoor and indoor spaces for informal and formal student gatherings, discussions, and study groups.

Sustainability – Protect, enhance, and celebrate our lakeside and forest setting. Reduce our impact on the land, air, and water; and better manage energy use. Develop sustainability guidelines using "green" building materials and techniques.

Transportation and pedestrian flow – Provide strategies for transportation, parking, accessibility, and walking paths to support ease of travel on and around campus . The goal is to encourage public transportation linkages and commute reduction while incorporating sustainability and aesthetics . Ensure safe, efficient ingress/egress and loading for emergency/commercial vehicles. Evaluate roads, entrances, parking, public transportation, and pedestrian routes.

Utilities and Technology Infrastructure – Provide a reliable utility/technology network to meet current and future demands. Plan for future utility corridors, considering new and existing building needs. Investigate alternate fuel and energy generation/conservation sources for buildings and fleet vehicles.

I. Introduction

Klamath Community College is seeking food service vendor(s) to occupy one or more of its commercial kitchens and storefront; to maintain business hours with hot and cold prepared food available to students, staff and the general public. Food would need to be available no less than every weekday in which school is in session.

The facilities in Building 4 include an indoor walk-up food order and pickup window. There is capacity in the pickup area to set up tables for dining just in front of the food ordering area with a small commercial kitchen with the capacity to meet the reasonable needs of the storefront. In the same building there is a large commercial kitchen with a walk-in refrigerator and freezer which has historically been used for classroom instruction but which could be used for a catering or restaurant business. Finally there is an additional classroom-sized area adjoining the large kitchen which could be used as an exclusive dining area.

We are seeking applicants who are interested in using one or all of these spaces to help give more food options to the students, staff and guests of the campus. We want to make food available and affordable for our students while also creating a business opportunity for the vendor to reach new potential market farther from traditional city restaurant locations.

Our campus frequently hosts events for students, staff, and the general public which often requires catering services or food trucks to meet the high-volume needs. Some of these events include student kick-off events, welcome week events, advisory committee meetings, community events such as Comic- Con, graduation, all-employee meetings, all-employee parties, job fair, benefits fair, resource fair, and more. Small regular events include board of education monthly meetings and weekly cabinet meetings.

This is a good opportunity, as there are low startup costs and low monthly overhead. The College is located at the intersection of two highways entering into Klamath Falls from the South and the East, which would make this location an attractive potential eatery for people entering town from outside the immediate area. It is also close to several healthy middle-income neighborhoods while only being a few minutes from the heart of downtown Klamath Falls. We want to build a relationship that will help meet the needs of our students while serving as an opportunity for a local business to grow.

II. Overview

KCC is requesting proposals for food service vendors for the main campus located at 7390 South 6^th Street, Klamath Falls in the food service area in Building 4. The general use area in Building 4 currently includes a fitness center, the office of student services, the career services center, the aviation department, and several other offices. The building is used throughout the year to host the College’s largest indoor events, both for the school, private events and the general public. The food services area includes a small commercial kitchen with an indoor walk-up food order and pickup window. There is capacity in the pickup area to set up tables for dining just in front of the food ordering area which are cleaned and maintained by KCC’s internal facilities department. In the same building there is a large commercial kitchen with a walk-in refrigerator and freezer which has historically been used for classroom instruction but which could be used for a catering or restaurant business. There is ample space for perishable and dry good storage across the three spaces dedicated for food service as well as a large array of fixtures and appliances available for tenant usage. These fixtures include commercial sized espresso machine, grills, fryers, ovens, mixers, proofers, steamers, refrigeration and dishwasher(s). Finally there is an additional classroom-sized area adjoining the large kitchen which could be used as an exclusive dining area.

The campus has enjoyed consistent growth over a long period and continues to expand as its appeal extends to traditional students, non-traditional students, and international students. Our highest priority is to make the campus a place that is conducive to student success while serving as a positive member of the larger community.

Along with creative entrees, made to order grilled specials and combos, an emphasis should be placed on freshly prepared and healthy food options such as salads, soups, wraps, pitas and deli style sandwiches to be included with various complimenting side dishes, beverages, as well as brewed and specialty coffee at a reasonable price.

Klamath Community College educates approximately 2,000 full-time-equivalent students each year while serving about 4,000 individuals of all ages in various educational categories. KCC also employs a work-force of approximately 400 staff both full- and part-time. For additional information, please visit www.klamathcc.edu.

KCC currently provides food exclusively in the form of on-campus vending machines and outside vendors.

KCC hosts numerous events which attract a large number of visitors. There are also numerous student programs held frequently on Campus.

Please email guestj@klamathcc.edu to schedule a tour of the facilities or to make additional inquiries.

III. Award

Proposer’s submissions will be judged on the following:

Days, times, and hours of operation offered
Price point, variety, quality and appeal of food/beverage offerings Additional evidence which will be considered if submitted:
Narrative summary of the history of the proposer in the food service industry
Written testimonials or online reviews of proposer’s current or previous business(es)
Business plan (either current or previously submitted for similar ventures)
Credit report
Proposed monthly rent (bids do not need to include estimated cost of utilities or commercial dishwasher usage)

KCC reserves the right to:

Accept or reject late proposals at its sole discretion
Accept or reject any and all proposals, or any item or part thereof, or to waive any informalities or irregularities in the proposals.

Withdraw or cancel this RFP at any time without prior notice and makes no representation that any contract will be awarded to any firm responding to this RFP.
Reissue a new RFP for the same or similar

Note on schedule: This RFP is open for 14 days on the basis that the College has already received expressions of interest from interested individuals and the bid is local.
