The ACBDE partners for this opportunity are DCGG Garrett, LLC (13.65%) and Doc 1 Solutions (13.65%). M/WBE firms will be selected by the concessionaire's selected General Contractor, after the execution of the concession agreement and the construction contract.  The M/WBE firms are reviewed and approved by DSBO prior to DEN's issuance of Notice to Proceed with construction for the concession location. A Notice to Proceed is provided by DEN to the concessionaire after all applicable documents, such as Bonds, Insurance, Permits, and DSBO approval, have been provided by the concessionaire, and their selected general contractor to begin construction of the concession location.

 

Is the contract new/a renewal/extension or amendment?

New

 

Was this contractor selected by competitive process or sole source?

No                                          

Denver International Airport (DEN) collaborated with its concessionaire partners to develop and implement the Premium Value Concessions Program (PVC). The program established an internal competition to recognize the top-performing concessions. These top performers are awarded the program benefit which is the opportunity to bypass the competitive request for proposal (RFP) process and begin a new lease negotiation with the airport. For those concessions not earning the Program Benefit, DEN will issue an RFP and competitively bid out those concession locations.

 

The PVC program represents a special circumstance, as outlined in Executive Order No. 8, authorized and justified by the DEN CEO to incentivize high performance among DEN’s concessionaires and allows DEN to contract directly with the highest of performers with proven track records at DEN. The PVC program was integrated into the respective concession agreements through amendments and in subsequent concession agreements, each approved by City Council, and the concessionaires who earned the PVC Program Benefit thereby have a legal contractual right to the privileges of the Program Benefit, including the right to negotiate these contracts without competitive selection.
