Audit findings involving contracts between state corrections departments and Aramark: OHIO, 2001: State auditor finds that, as a result of a verbal amendment to Aramark's two-year contract, the state corrections department paid Aramark for serving almost 4.5 million meals rather than the 2.8 million actually served from November 1998 to October 2000, adding $2.1 million to the contract cost. On-site visits also found "inexcusable" sanitation conditions, a lack of training and "a near riot" at breakfast over Aramark's strict adherence to contractual portion sizes. FLORIDA, 2007: An internal audit by the state Department of Corrections concludes Aramark's practice of charging the state per inmate rather than per meal created "a windfall for the vendor," with the company being paid for some 6,000 meals a day that it didn't serve. Aramark was also found switching menus to substitute less expensive ingredients without passing savings on to the state. The review said state outsourcing of food service hadn't met its objective and recommended modifying, rebidding or abandoning the contract. Aramark served its last prison meal in Florida in January 2009. KENTUCKY, 2010: Read More. |
