will benefit through cost savings, meeting bid law requirements, and

receiving items that meet Child Nutrition program requirements.

Rationale: Studies indicate that school districts benefit through cooperative

participation with a considerable cost savings. While the purchasing

power of the WTFSC is significant; the costs of goods and services

continues to rise annually. The industry standard shows increases have

been 7 to 10 percent for most food service goods and services. The

current WTFSC increases have been 3 to 4 percent. Cooperative

participation also reduces costs associated with advertising, paperwork,

and time spent on the bidding process as well as more buying power.

Funding: N/A

Recommendation: Consider and take possible action on YISD Contract #20110368,

Interlocal Agreement with Region 17, to participate in the West Texas

Food Service Cooperative, during the period of August 1, 2011 through

July 31, 2012, at a cost of .85% of each District purchase (vendor

participation fee) which is not to exceed $600,000 using Federal Funds.
