SECTION II

SCOPE OF SERVICES

Mobile Food Distribution for Various Public Housing Communities

The Housing Authority of the City of Pittsburgh (HACP) has worked with a partner organization

to rewrite the narrative on hunger and food insecurity in Pittsburgh’s low-income housing

communities by bringing rescued/ donated food directly to low-income households.

The HACP remains committed to assisting its residents to have regular access to rescued/

donated food and is seeking proposals for a vendor that can add to the capacity of existing food

delivery programs serving our communities.

The HACP has worked with a partner organization to deliver over 1,000,000 pounds of mostly

fresh healthy foods directly to HACP communities, effectively ending hunger for HACP

households. However, along with the health and food access benefits a number of unexpected

positive results come from the collaboration including leadership opportunities for residents,

community building and deepened community relations.

Our partner food distribution partner organization regularly provides service to the family

communities of Bedford Dwellings, Homewood North, Northview Heights, Allegheny

Dwellings, Arlington Heights and the senior citizen communities of Caliguiri Plaza, Carrick

Regency, Gualtieri Plaza, Morse Gardens, Northview Heights High Rise and Pressley Street

High Rise, Finello Pavilion, Manchester Commons, Murray Towers, Mazza Pavilion and

Pennsylvania-Bidwell.

The HACP is seeking to build off of the success of this collaboration by procuring the services of

a qualified vendor to extend food delivery services to HACP communities that have not been

able to receive regular food delivery services.

Presently, food delivery/ distribution services are limited to the communities noted above; while

several HACP communities remain excluded from receiving the regular food delivery services

for reasons related to capacity and a lack of appropriate space to host the food deliveries. HACP

does not have available onsite food storage and does not have the staffing resources needed to

coordinate food deliveries such as setting up and cleaning up the delivery site.

The proposed method for expanding service will involve HACP issuing a contract with a vendor

that is capable of providing regular delivery of food to the communities listed above and to do so

in a manner that is safe, reliable and efficient. The selected vendor will be required to provide

regular deliveries (at least once per month, per community) in accordance with a schedule that is

developed with and approved by HACP staff. HACP is not able to provide onsite locations for

distribution at these communities and will require the vendor to provide a self-contained, mobile

distribution system – such as using a refrigerated food truck. HACP is encouraging a food

distribution system that meets the needs of the HACP’s residents.
