The proposed Human Care Agreement (HCA) No. CW130120 seeks approval for a contract with Great American Corporation to provide meal preparation and delivery services for the District's Community Dining Sites meal program, specifically for Wards five through eight. The contract is valued at a maximum of $6,338,367.14 and will run from October 15, 2025, to October 14, 2026. Great American Corporation will deliver various meal options to approximately 4,069 participants at community dining sites and provide nutrition supplements to around 250 homebound participants. The contract includes provisions for option periods that account for anticipated cost adjustments due to inflation and increases in food and labor expenses.

The bill also outlines a letter contract between the District of Columbia Office of Contracting and Procurement (OCP) and Great American Corporation, which is to be definitized within 120 calendar days from the award date, with a total not-to-exceed (NTE) amount of $6,340,115.39 for the definitive contract and a cap of $620,000 for the letter contract. If the contract is not definitized within the specified timeframe, it will expire, and the District will compensate the Provider for services rendered up to the NTE amount. The bill further stipulates that the base period for the definitized contract will last one year from the award date, and any work outside the identified price schedule will require a revised quote from the Provider before a purchase order can be issued.
