From the meeting
The district said it was continuing to work with Genuine Foods to address higher-than-anticipated Nutrition Services costs and improve long-term sustainability. Genuine Foods initially proposed a 2026-27 budget that was $126,000 above prior-year expenditures, then revised it after district discussions, but projected costs still remained about $70,000 above the current budget. Genuine was developing an updated proposal, and the board was expected to discuss any proposed changes after that presentation.
This was still under review as of the October 26, 2026 report.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
