1 GENERAL INFORMATION AND PROCUREMENT OPPORTUNITY

1.1 CONCESSION DESCRIPTION

The Tulsa Airports Improvement Trust (“TAIT”) is soliciting proposals for a food/beverage concession offering at Tulsa International Airport (TUL).

This Request for Proposals (RFP) is intended to inform interested parties about the competitive selection process for the concession opportunity at TUL and to assist TAIT in selecting a concession operator. The RFP includes necessary information for prospective Proposers to submit valid, responsive proposals. It is intended that this RFP will communicate to Proposers the requirements and the scope of the services that TAIT expects to acquire, to communicate the projected schedule for awarding of the contract, and to provide a structured and standardized format for submission of responses.

Proposers can download the RFP documents at http://www.tulsaairports.com/about-tait/business-opportunities/ or they may request a hardcopy of the RFP by contacting TAIT.

This tender is open to the public and to those firms that meet the minimum qualifications described herein. It is expected that the lease commencement shall begin on July 1, 2019 as further described in SECTION

2.1. TERM OF CONCESSION AGREEMENT of the Exemplar Lease attached herein.

There is an available space of 804 square feet for a concession at TUL Total food sales for CY 2018 was $6,734,468.32.

TAIT will select the Proposer that best demonstrates the ability to meet the current and future needs of the traveling public for the available space. It is TAIT’s preference that the available space be operated by a certified Airport Concessions Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (“ACDBE”) and that the offering would provide a fresh, healthy option, such as sandwiches, soups

and salads. TAIT also would rather that the Proposer awarded the contract not choose an offering that would entail ventilation requiring roof penetration. TAIT has the right of final approval of all concepts.

1.2 HISTORICAL SALES AND CURRENT STORE LOCATIONS

The following sales history is provided as an overview of Tulsa International Airport’s current concessions program. Historical sales included in this RFP are for informational purposes only. TAIT is not responsible for any inaccuracies or misinterpretations of data.

1.4 AIRPORT DESCRIPTION

1.4.1 PHYSICAL ASPECTS

Page 6: ISSUED: Monday, March 18, 2019 - Tulsa Airport

Request For Proposals for Food and Beverage Concession Page 6

TUL has a U-shaped terminal with two passenger levels: the ground/ticketing level and the concourse level. Most services, excluding ticketing, are provided at the concourse level. Originating departing passengers enter the terminal on the ground floor. After completing any ticketing related processing, passengers proceed up one level to reach the concourses. The second floor security screening empties out into the middle of a rectangular connector, with a retail and food and beverage zone on each side of the connector. Originating departing passengers turn either left to access Concourse B gates, or right to access

Concourse A gates. The space available for the concession is located on Concourse A.

Arriving passengers move southwest to clear the concourse and exit the secured airside. The majority of arriving passengers will continue their passage and exit the terminal by continuing across the sky bridges and into the baggage claim. Passengers have the option to traverse to the center of the airport upon exiting the concourses and move to the center of the building, but this takes them away from the natural flow of passenger movement as the majority of passengers will exit from baggage claim. Light concessions in the form of 24-hour vending is offered at the baggage claim area.

1.4.2 HISTORICAL FACTS AND FIGURES

The following information is provided as an overview of the Tulsa International

Airport and its passengers.

Passenger statistics included in this RFP are for informational purposes only. TAIT is not responsible for any inaccuracies or misrepresentations of data, and does not guarantee any minimum rate of return or gross sales.

Page 15: ISSUED: Monday, March 18, 2019 - Tulsa Airport

Request For Proposals for Food and Beverage Concession Page 15

incorporate those brands and products that best represent and help to define what the Northern Oklahoma and Tulsa regions means, and should be easily recognizable to local users of the airport. Proposers should bring iconic brands, products, and services that demonstrate the character and nature of the region’s history and culture by offering those products and services that best exemplify the regions rich heritage.

Employees at the concession location are required to be able to assist the public with wayfinding within the Airport. As such, the selected Proposer is expected to ensure that employees are provided with information regarding the locations of other concessions, restrooms, elevators, airlines, gates, information desks, etc., and that such information is provided upon request and with all due courtesy and dispatch. Also, Proposers are expected to provide its leased location with a list of emergency and other important numbers, as well as with ways that employees can respond to customers’ requests for information.

1.12 NON-EXCLUSIVE PROGRAM

This RFP and the subsequent Agreement is non-exclusive in character and in no way prevents TAIT from entering into agreements with any other parties for the sale or offering of competitive services, products or items by other concessionaires and/or others in other premises at the Airport during the successful Proposer’s Term of Agreement.

Percentage Rent Percentage Fees: TAIT has established percentage fees, on a per-location basis, as follows:

Food and Beverage Locations

Support and Storage Fees

In addition to the concession leased locations, TAIT may provide administrative support and storage space, if available, to the selected Proposer. The Proposers will pay monthly rental payments for the Proposer’s office or storage at the rate of $15.00 per square feet per year for any office space above the granted space, and a rate of $6.00 per square feet per year for any storage space. The rental rate for the administrative and storage space will be adjusted on the anniversary date at a rate of 3% per year.

Concession Marketing Fee

A concession marketing fee of one half of one percent (0.5%) of Gross Revenues will be assessed annually to be paid monthly, beginning the month following the leased location opening and due on the 15th of each month in conjunction with the submittal of the Percentage Rent fee. This fee is to be used for marketing concessions at the Airport. The marketing tactics will be mutually agreed upon by TAIT and the Proposer.

Additional Fees Due

If TAIT has paid any sum or has incurred any obligation or expense for which the Proposer agreed to pay or reimburse TAIT, or if TAIT is required to or elects to pay any sum or incur any obligation or expense because of the failure, neglect, or refusal of the Proposer to perform or fulfill any of the terms or conditions of the Agreement, then those same sums, obligations, or expenses will be deemed additional fees due and subject to an administrative fee of twenty-five percent (25%) of such payment, obligation, or expense.

2.3 INITIAL CAPITAL INVESTMENT REQUIREMENTS

It is TAIT’s desire to have only first class facilities at the Airport.

2.5 AIRPORT CONCESSION DISADAVTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (ACDBE) PARTICIPATION

It is the policy of TAIT that Airport Concession Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (“ACDBE”) as defined in 49 CFR Part 23 shall have the maximum opportunity to participate in the performance of contracts financed in whole or in part with federal funds under this Agreement. TAIT has developed and implemented an ACDBE program as required under Department of Transportation 49 CFR Part 23 and Part 26. The ACDBE program objective is to ensure full and fair access to concession opportunities for all businesses and in particular for ACDBE businesses. Contracts pertaining to the concession program at TUL are subject to the requirements of 49 CFR Part 23 and Part 26 and the Airport’s ACDBE Policy and Program requirements and contract provisions. The ACDBE Liaison Officer (DBELO) is responsible for compliance with all aspects of the ACDBE program. TAIT has established an annual ACDBE goal for the Airport and specific goals for this solicitation as follows: Food and Beverage Goal: 5.2%. The ACDBE goal is a percentage of annual gross receipts for the TUL operation that are committed to certified ACDBE firms. The DBELO will determine whether the proposer’s commitment for meeting the goal or Good Faith Effort to meet the goal is responsive once all ACDBE forms have been submitted. It is TAIT’s preference that the offered location be operated solely by an ACDBE Certified concessionaire. However, each Proposer must comply with the terms and conditions of the Policies in making its proposal and, if awarded the Contract, in performing all work thereunder. A proposer’s failure to comply with any Rules or Regulations promulgated pursuant thereto, or any additional requirements contained herein may render its proposal non-responsive and may constitute cause for rejection.

Page 20: ISSUED: Monday, March 18, 2019 - Tulsa Airport

Request For Proposals for Food and Beverage Concession Page 20

1. Responsive; compliance with requirements. If a proposal meets the package-specific goal or shows an adequate good faith effort in accordance with the Policies, then the DBELO shall notify the procuring department to regard the proposal as responsive. Proposers must indicate their ACDBE commitment at the time proposals are due, however have 7 calendar days to submit details regarding actual ACDBE partners and/or their good faith efforts.

2. Non-Responsive; failure to meet requirements. If a proposal does not meet the goal or show an adequate good faith effort, or provide the necessary documentation or forms outlined in the Policies, then the DBELO shall notify the procuring department to regard the proposal as non-responsive. Such determination shall result in no further consideration of the bid/proposal by the Selection Committee.

The proposer may meet its ACDBE participation commitment utilizing any combination of options listed below all of which require proof of ACDBE certification in the State of Oklahoma, or certification in another state and eligible for certification in Oklahoma by TAIT. The ACDBE certificate or certification letter must be submitted at the time of proposal submission. Describe how you meet or made a good faith effort to meet the Airport’s ACDBE participation goals for this RFP, and for each ACDBE, provide a complete description of the nature of their participation, and their experience and qualifications. The options for meeting this commitment are:

1. 100% ACDBE participation: For this option, the proposer is solely owned and operated as a certified ACDBE firm in the State of Oklahoma, or certified in another state and eligible for certification in Oklahoma. Complete Form 1: ACDBE Utilization Form contained in the RFP and submit ACDBE certificate(s). Submit with the proposal so that the proposed option is approved by the DBELO at the time the proposal is submitted. This is TAIT’s preferred method of operation of the concession.

2. Percentage Participation: For this option, a percentage of the business is designated to be owned, operated and/or maintained by a certified ACDBE through a sub-lease, management, operating and/or franchise agreement. If the proposer plans to participate in a partnership with a certified ACDBE firm, the proposer must complete Form H: ACDBE Utilization Form at the time the proposal is submitted and Form I: ACDBE Letter of Intent and submit ACDBE certificate(s) for each certified ACDBE participant. This form(s) is required within seven calendar days after proposals are due.

3. Other Legal Arrangement. For this option, the proposer may propose some other legal

arrangement so long as it meets the eligibility standards in 49 CFR Part 23.

Options 2-3 will require TAIT approval.

Note: All firms upon which ACDBE certification is being relied, whether as proposer, JV partner, goods and services provider, sub concessionaire, subcontractor or any other arrangement, must be certified as an ACDBE in the State of Oklahoma or be certified in another state and eligible for certification in Oklahoma upon submission of the Proposal.

The amount and type of ACDBE participation proposed will become a firm commitment upon submission of the Proposal and will be monitored by the DBELO. The proposer agrees, as an expressed condition of its performance, to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 23 and the appropriate provisions under

Page 21: ISSUED: Monday, March 18, 2019 - Tulsa Airport

Request For Proposals for Food and Beverage Concession Page 21

the lease agreement. Proposer acknowledges that its failure to comply with these requirements may be a material breach of the Lease, and could result in suspension of the right to operate, termination, or such other remedy, as TAIT deems appropriate.

2.5.1 ACDBE GOOD FAITH EFFORTS

The Department of Transportation (DOT) ACDBE regulations found at 49 Code of Federal Regulations Part 23 provides for the adoption of a good faith effort (GFE) to be administered by TAIT. In order to comply with the proposal requirements of Part23, a proposer shall either meet the specific ACDBE goal for this concession opportunity, or in the alternative, demonstrate that the proposer has made sufficient good faith efforts to meet the goal in accordance with the good faith effort provisions of Part 23 detailed below.

Documentation must be completed and submitted within seven calendar days after the proposal submission to support your Good Faith Efforts. The submission of good faith efforts documentation is a matter of responsiveness. Failure of the Proposer to demonstrate adequate good faith efforts shall render the overall good faith showing insufficient and the proposal nonresponsive.

2.5.2 MODIFICATIONS/SUBSTITUTIONS Proposer shall also make a good faith effort to replace an ACDBE included in the Request for Proposal submission that has failed to complete its concession arrangement, joint venture commitment, lease, sublease or subcontracting arrangement with a certified ACDBE, to the extent needed to meet the concession specific goals.

If a Proposer proposes to terminate, substitute or modify the participation of an ACDBE Joint Venture partner, team member, subcontractor or sub-concessionaire prior or after Lease award, prior to such change, the Proposer shall immediately submit for review and prior approval, to the DBELO, reasonable documentation regarding the proposed change in the ACDBE participation. Proposer shall include the specific reasons for the change in ACDBE participation and must produce any and all documents and information regarding the proposed change.

2.5.3 COMPLIANCE/REPORTING

Proposer shall also comply with the requirements of this section regarding any proposed change(s) in ACDBE participation arising from or relating to any assignment, sublease, or transfer of the obligations under this Lease.

Proposer shall timely submit reports and verifications within ten (10) business days as requested by TAIT and shall provide such financial information or other information deemed necessary by TAIT to support and document the ACDBE commitment for this Lease. Also, the Proposer shall provide such financial information or other information deemed necessary by TAIT to support and document the ACDBE Subcontracting/Supplier commitment for this Lease. TAIT shall have the right until three (3) years after the expiration or termination of this Lease, through its representatives, and at all reasonable time, to review books, records and financial information of the

Proposer (and where applicable, all individuals, joint venture partners or team members or other business entities that are a party or engaged in concession activity under this Lease) requested by TAIT’s

Page 22: ISSUED: Monday, March 18, 2019 - Tulsa Airport

Request For Proposals for Food and Beverage Concession Page 22

representatives to substantiate compliance with 49 C.F.R. Parts 23 & 26; as amended and any guidance issued by FAA from time to time regarding the interpretation of the federal regulations.

2.5.4 ACDBE RESOURCES Federal regulations along with links to FAA provided DBE information is available online: www.tulsaairports.com/business.

49 CFR Part 23.79 does not permit recipients of federal funds to use local geographic preferences. For purposes of this section, a local geographic preference is any requirement that gives an ACDBE located in one place (e.g. our local area) an advantage over ACDBEs from other places in obtaining businesses as, or with, a concession at TUL.

Questions regarding ACDBE and/or DBE questions that arise concerning this concession opportunity should be directed by telephone or email to: Alexis Higgins – 918-838-5000; [email protected].

2.5.5 CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

If claiming ACDBE participation, certificates for all certified firms shall be submitted within seven calendar days after Proposal submission.

While 49 CFR Part 23 and/or 26 is mandatory to airports that receive federal funds, it is not mandatory that a minority firm be certified as an ACDBE in order to be awarded a concession contract. However, in order to credit the participation of an ACDBE towards the goal stated in the RFP, the Airport requires that ACDBE firms be certified by the Oklahoma Unified Certification Program at the time of proposal submission.

2.6 TITLE VI SOLICITATION NOTICE

Title VI Solicitation Notice.

Request For Proposals for Food and Beverage Concession Page 29

i. Facility descriptions should describe the overall look and feel of the location; the overall floor plan, customer flow within the space (if applicable), as well as planned materials and finishes of the interior, exterior and furnishings. Detailed design plans will not be required until after execution of the Lease Agreement.

b) The design of the location should take into account that most customers will have luggage, briefcases, and other carry-on items. Attention should be given to ease of movement between fixtures, tables, and customer-friendly checkout centers.

c) Proposers shall submit a narrative description and representative samples of interior and exterior drawings or photographs of the proposed capital improvements to be made to the leased location and the dominant design theme in sufficient detail to enable evaluation of the quality and design of the proposed improvements.

d) Proposer should identify the in-house architectural capabilities or any architectural design teams to be used, specifying prior experience in the design and design review of airport, shopping and dining facilities with photographs attached.

e) Proposers are encouraged to develop a fresh, healthy option for TUL passengers, which will also not require the concourse roof to be penetrated for ventilation.

Tab H - Airport Concession Disadvantaged Business Enterprises

The Airport Concession Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (ACDBEs) Form (Form H) must be signed by the Proposer providing the level of dedicated ACDBE business that Proposers must provide during the life of the Agreement. Additionally, the Proposer shall submit within seven calendar days after the proposal submission an ACDBE Participation Plan (Form I) that identifies the names of Proposer’s ACDBE participants, indicating each participant’s relationship with the respondent (e.g., subtenant, joint venture partner, supplier, etc.).

5 GENERAL CONDITIONS AND INSTRUCTION

5.1 PROPOSERS TO MAKE OWN INVESTIGATIONS AND PROJECTIONS

This RFP has been designed so Proposers can follow a step-by-step process from proposal preparation, to submittal, to evaluation and award. Although TAIT believes its information on historical data, statistics, etc., to be accurate, TAIT cannot guarantee the accuracy of such information, and Proposers should investigate such matters to their own satisfaction and make their own projections. Proposers may not rely on any implied representations or warranties (the existence of which are hereby disclaimed), or the accuracy of any projections or other information provided in connection with this RFP. Proposers should make independent and expert investigation and evaluation of all information provided in connection with this RFP. Although TAIT has provided information related to possible future levels of enplanements and operations, such information is provided solely to assist the Proposer. TAIT makes no guarantee, warranty or other assurance as to the levels of future activity.

Each Proposer is responsible for making all investigations and examinations necessary to submit a proposal to operate the food and beverage concession operation at the Airport. Failure to do so will not waive any condition of the Lease Agreement. Submission of a proposal shall be considered evidence that the Proposer has made such investigations and examinations.

5.2 CONSEQUENCES OF SUBMISSION OF PROPOSAL

The successful Proposer shall be required, within fifteen (15) business days after the receipt of a notice of contract award, to execute and return the Lease Agreement as negotiated, as well as any required insurance documentation and performance guarantees. Should the successful Proposer fail to execute and return the Agreement, insurance and guarantee within the time allowed, the Chief Executive Officer may proceed to complete negotiations with the next highest ranked Proposer and the Board of Trustees will rescind the earlier award and reward the Contract at a later meeting, and retain as liquidated damages the required bid deposit.

An agreement shall not be binding or valid with TAIT unless and until it is approved by TAIT and properly executed by TAIT and the Proposer. TAIT reserves the right to revise or postpone any of the Proposals and award schedule dates contained in this RFP.

5.2.1 EXAMINATION OF PROPOSAL MATERIALS

The submission of a proposal shall be deemed a representation and certification by the Proposer that it has investigated all relevant conditions, facts, circumstances, procedures, requirements, and aspects associated with this RFP, and that it has read and understands the RFP and the included Exemplar Lease Agreement.

Each Proposer is responsible for reviewing the RFP upon receipt to ensure possession of all necessary documents. If certain required documents are missing from the RFP the Proposer should immediately contact the Airport at 918-838-5000 to obtain a complete package.

Upon submittal of a proposal, it will be presumed that the Proposer has read and is familiar with all the RFP documents. Therefore, after receipt of a proposal by TAIT, no request for modification of the proposal and no claim for adjustment of any provisions of the RFP, unless requested by TAIT during any subsequent negotiation process, shall be honored, regardless of any claim by a Proposer that it was not fully informed as to any fact or condition.

5.2.2 INTERPRETATION OF PROPOSAL DOCUMENT

If discrepancies or omissions are found by any prospective Proposer, or if there is doubt as to the meaning of any part of this RFP, prospective Proposers may submit written requests for clarification or

Page 33: ISSUED: Monday, March 18, 2019 - Tulsa Airport

interpretation to TAIT at the address given in Section 1.6, “Hard Copies of RFP”, of this document. Questions must be submitted to TAIT by the “RFP Questions Due” deadline given in the table in Section 1.5.

Any clarification or interpretation of the RFP will be made in writing by TAIT, as part of the addendum and will be emailed to the Proposer’s registered representative. TAIT is not responsible for any explanation, clarification, interpretation, or approval made or given in any manner except by addendum.

If any language in this RFP conflicts or is inconsistent with the language of the Exemplar Lease Agreement, the terms of the Exemplar Lease Agreement will govern.

5.3 DISQUALIFICATION

Factors such as, but not limited to the following, may disqualify a Proposer without further consideration:

Any attempt to exert undue influence on members of the Evaluation Committee and/or TAIT staff,

including any member of the Board of Trustees;

A Proposer’s default in the operation of a food, beverage, or retail concession which resulted in the

termination of the Proposer or the default of a joint venture or partner;

Existence of any unresolved litigation between the Proposer and TAIT;

Any offering of a gift to TAIT and/or its representative, in contravention of TAIT’s Ethics policy or

state laws;

The default of a joint venture partner, individual partner, or shareholder in any concession, may be

considered a default of Proposer under this section, if such defaulting entity or person has ownership

interest in Proposer;

Oral or written communications with any TAIT Board Member or TAIT employee in violation of

the Limitation on Communications as provided in Section 1.7.

5.4 SUBLEASES, JOINT VENTURE, PARTNERSHIPS, ETC.

TAIT reserves the right to deny or consent to any subleases, joint ventures, partnerships, or other contractual agreements entered into by Proposer and any third party in connection with the Proposer’s concession operations at the Airport.

5.5 RESPONSE PREPARATION COSTS

Neither TAIT nor its representatives shall be liable for any expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of a response to this RFP. Proposer understands that this RFP does not constitute an agreement or a contract between the Proposer and TAIT.

5.6 INSURANCE

Prior to starting any work or operations under the Exemplar Lease Agreement, selected Proposers, at their sole cost and expense and for the full term of the Agreements and all extensions thereof, shall obtain and maintain insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to property which may arise from or in connection with the activities of Proposers. Such insurance shall meet or exceed the minimum insurance requirements set forth in the attached Exemplar Lease Agreement. TAIT shall not be obligated to take out insurance on selected Proposers’ property. Selected Proposers shall provide TAIT with certificates of insurance or copies of all policies and such endorsements as may be required by TAIT.

Request For Proposals for Food and Beverage Concession Page 34

5.7 SPECIAL CONDITIONS

It is important for Proposers to note that the TUL operating environment presents a set of unique challenges that do not exist in a typical retail setting.

The TUL customer has a limited amount of time to spend in the airport and must be served quickly;

Facilities must be open 365 days a year with operating hours (as established by TAIT) and staffing levels adequate for both the hourly and seasonal peaks in passenger traffic;

Major flight delays, generally weather related, are not uncommon. TUL is affected not only by local weather, but by weather in other parts of the world served by our carriers. This could result in a significant population of restless travelers at TUL at unusual hours. The concession operations plan must be flexible enough to provide extended hours and additional staff to accommodate the additional business and customer service opportunities these delays afford.

Proposers must schedule deliveries for times that do not conflict with TUL’s peak traffic times. All deliveries must unload at an area designated by the Airport. The selected Proposers will be responsible for arranging transportation of the merchandise to the storage areas and coordination of any security checks;

All goods and merchandise entering the airside will be screened;

The Airport is a non-smoking facility;

Customers are primarily airline passengers, many traveling with carry-on luggage. To attract these customers, designs and displays must clearly accommodate passengers carrying luggage while avoiding creating safety hazards;

Each employee of the tenant is an ambassador for the Airport and Tulsa. Training is essential and must be conducted under mandate by TAIT. Training, at minimum, should include knowledge of the terminal areas and other services available to travelers;

Construction of the lease location may be subject to moratoriums or constraints due to terminal building construction.

 Section 2.2 Term of Concession Agreement.   The Term of  this Agreement shall commence at

toward TAIT’s overall ACDBE goal.   Concessionaire shall timely submit reports and verifications within ten (10) business days as requested by TAIT and shall provide such financial information or other information deemed necessary by TAIT to support and document the ACDBE commitment for  this  Agreement.    Concessionaire  shall  also  provide  such  financial  information  or  other information deemed necessary by TAIT to support and document the ACDBE participation for this Agreement.  TAIT shall have the right until three (3) years after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, through its representatives, and at all reasonable times, to review books, records and  financial  information  of  the  Concessionaire  (and  where  applicable,  all  individuals,  joint venture partners or  team members or other business entities  that are a party or engaged  in concession activity under  this Agreement) requested by TAIT’s representatives  to substantiate compliance with 49 CFR Parts 23 and 26, as amended, and any guidance issued by the FAA from time to time regarding the interpretation of federal regulations.

time of Agreement award  is deemed to be contractual  in nature and will be monitored by the ACDBELO.  Therefore,  failure  of  Concessionaire  to meet  the  ACDBE  participation  percentage commitment in this Agreement, to the extent needed to meet the concession specific goal shall constitute a material breach of the Agreement. TAIT shall have the right to suspend the right to operate, terminate the Agreement, or pursue other such remedies at law or in equity to which TAIT may be entitled in accordance with the provisions of Article XI hereof.
