I . INTRODUCTION
Background
The feasibility study of putting-up vending machines inside the Universityof the
Philippines in the Visayas- Iloilo City Campus was conducted last February 28, 2006.
The study focused on the student's preferences in terms of type of goods, spending
capacity allocated for purchasing the products, and the desired location of the vending
machines. And, it was found out that the study is feasible and profitable.
This proposal encourages to put-up three vending machines inside the campus to
meet the consumers' needs. The significance of this initial plan would be helpful to the
knowledge of the investor on installing vending machines. It would also be better for the
investor to consider the specific needs of the target market.
Purpose
The purpose of this proposal is to push through the initial plan of putting up three
vending machines inside the University of the Philippines in the Visayas- Iloilo City
campus. The proposal is rooted from the feasibility study of putting-up vending machine
conducted last February 28, 2006. The feasibility study focused on the students’
preferences in terms of type of goods and desired location. Accomplishing this purpose
means that the investor should properly address the consumers’ needs on that area to win
the competition.
Benefits
The profitability rate of 58% computed from the feasibility study would be sufficient for
the investor to purchase and install vending machines. It is ultimately able to compete in
the university’s cafeteria. It provides small business with the advanced technical
assistance and training. This will be accomplished through a cooperative partnership of
the investor and the school.
II. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECTS
Proposed Project
Criteria SMI-9155 Vending Machine
1. cost of machine P61,629.00
2. size of machine 53”x30.5”x22.5
3. number of products 111 snacks and 155 drinks
4. weight of machine 235 lbs.
5. selection of products 9 snacks and 5 drinks
Continuity of service is essential for success and for this to be achieved, regular
feedback is required on the status of a machine, and the machine needs to be secure
against vandalism.
Marketing
The University of the Philippines should undertake to raise awareness of the
project and its rationale through a wide variety of means. Most used one or more of the
following approaches:
1. Announcements in year assemblies, usually within the context of a broader
food and nutrition message.
2. Raising awareness with students through discussion about the project and its
rationale with their advisers and or professors.
3. The creation of poster displays about the project with essential benefits.
4. Student council activities with a focus on sampling opinions, promotions open
forum with sample product available for comment and attitudes from the
population.
5. Inclusion of the project description posted on bulletin boards.
These were all effective in raising awareness of new service prior to
commencement, particularly those students who did not usually go to school cafeteria on
a regular basis. Though there were good intentions on these campaigns during the project
the reality was that the busy life of the school dictated against this happening.
Machine Security
In some locations, where vending machines may be at risk of vandalism and/or
other damage, it may be advantageous to protect said machines with enclosures and other
security features, such as security system and protective hoods.
In situation where the University of the Philippines in the Visayas requires the
installation of such equipment, such equipment shall be installed at the university’s
expense and shall become the property of the said school. In all other instances, the
installation shall be the investor’s decision and at the investor’s expense.
Brand Names
The investor shall indicate the brand names for each of the types of beverage
and/or snack offered in the proposal. Should brands quoted herein become unavailable
during the contract period, substitution of equal or better quality, without any change in
price, may be permitted as determined by the university. The investor shall provide
healthy beverage and snack product options for the vending machines at youth centers.
All products must have university approval prior to stocking machines.
Equipment
The successful investor shall provide all required vending equipment, vending
enclosures, dispensing equipment, currency and coin changers. The investor shall furnish
all tools, equipment, apparatus, facilities, transportation, labor and materials necessary to
furnish supplies, equipment, and maintenance services at such times and places as
directed by, and with the approval of, the University. The investor shall provide in its
proposal the style and type of each variety of machine listed.
Customer Service and Repair Service
There must be the availability of a customer service representative who assists in
maintaining proper inventory levels, and handles all questions regarding billing, charge
terms, delivery and for placement of orders. The successful investor shall assign a route
technician who is its employee to visit the facility and park sites, in order to evaluate
each machine and item of equipment. The route technician shall fill and service the
vending machines on a regular basis, and adjust route service as necessary during peak
business periods.
The investor shall repair, clean and maintain the dispensing and vending
equipment and the vending machine enclosures, and keep all equipment, machines and
enclosures in good working order and condition at all times. The bidder shall be
responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of the areas around, behind, on top of, and
under the vending machines that are installed, and the bidder shall remove all of the
refuse created by filling and servicing the vending machines, and shall ensure that all
vending machine enclosures are locked and secured.
III. EVALUATION CRITERIA
The proposal enumerated the following evaluation plan for the success of this business
as follows:
An evaluation of the quality, maturity and financial stability of the firm.
An evaluation of the firm's ability and experience in providing the service offered,
including:
level of client satisfaction, cost/benefit relationship and relative success.
An evaluation of the experience and training of the personnel the firm will be
committing for assignments at the University.
An evaluation of the approach and related costs. When and if all other factors are
considered equal, cost will be the deciding criteria.

Capital Investment Analysis
The machine is expected to have a useful life of 8 years. The study has selected a
rate of 12% for the purpose of this analysis. By deducting the amount invested of P61,
629 from the total present value of net cash flow of P205, 593, the result was the
expected income of P143, 964 for over 8 years.
