Food Service Management Company Contracts
A food service management company (FSMC) contract is one
in which the contractor manages some aspect of the school
food service program. Generally, the FSMC prepares and serves
the meals and/or manages the school meal program(s).
According
to The School Code of Illinois, all FSMC contracts involving
expenditures in excess of $10,000 must be competitively
bid. School food authorities (SFAs) receiving federal reimbursement
must follow the required federal and state procurement
procedures. To ensure regulatory compliance, all SFAs conducting
a new
procurement or considering contracting for school meal
services are highly encouraged to attend the meal
service procurement
training offered by the Nutrition
Programs Division in December and January of each year.
