The U.S. Department of the Interior, Office of International Affairs, is soliciting a contractor for a non-severable, full-service cocktail reception associated with the REACH 250 program. The event will serve at least 250 and no more than 300 guests and requires catered food and non-alcoholic beverages, including passed hors d'oeuvres or buffet stations with protein-based, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, plus coffee and tea service. Menu selections should incorporate Native American-inspired culinary traditions, and the contractor must accommodate specified dietary needs. The contractor must provide event-day staffing, including an event supervisor, bartenders, servers, kitchen or chef staff, pantry staff, and setup, breakdown, and maintenance personnel. The scope also includes bar units, cocktail tables and linens, seating, china, glassware, flatware, serving equipment, kitchen equipment, decorations, delivery, setup, same-day pickup, trash removal, recycling, event coordination, a staffing plan, and a final floor plan. Pricing is a firm-fixed unit price per guest, with the final guaranteed guest count established before the event. The solicitation evaluates technical approach and management, past performance, and price, and requires an SCA verification form with the quotation.
