Summary:
California Public Contract Code § 20118 allows a school district to purchase items without competitive bidding, where another public corporation or entity has a contract to purchase items, known as a "piggyback contract." District staff seeks to piggyback on Napa Valley Unified School District’s (NVUSD) Request for Proposal (RFP) #2024-03-13 for Pizza Services. NVUSD conducted a RFP this spring for the pizza services for the same services MDUSD was seeking. MDUSD reviewed this RPF and several others. Staff also solicited the views and opinions of other districts in order to obtain an understanding of the pizza service market in the area. Through this process staff discovered Tasty Indian Pizza, Inc., and their RFP award with NVUSD. Tasty Pizza is a local company based in Fairfield and their pizza is fresh, never frozen. They use locally sourced flour from Capay Mills and local Sonoma tomatoes from Di Napoli. Tasty Pizza's quality and price point make Tasty Pizza the best fit for our pizza service needs. By utilizing this piggyback option, the District is streamlining the procurement process of our own RFP, thereby saving the district time and money of processing our own RFP. District staff asks the Board to make the determination that allowing this piggyback option is in the best interest of the District. Staff requests the Board approval of for the use of the piggyback agreement with NVUSD and Tasty Indian Pizza, Inc. for Pizza Services not to extend beyond the date of the original agreement, being May 9, 2027, or until such Agreement is no longer in affect between NVUSD and Tasty Pizza.
