The details say they will send a small pizza to each person.
In my area you can pretty easily find a small-sized pizza for $5 to $8 from an independent pizza place. Similar prices from national chains. Little Caesar's, for instance, offers a $5.55 large cheese pizza.
Let's suppose the delivery fee and tip is another $5.
And let's suppose it takes five minutes per person in time to find a pizza place near them and place the order. At an hourly rate of $60 for the coordinator, that's $5 per person.
So now you're looking at about $5 in profit per person, not even factoring in the $69 administrative fee.
I can't think of a reason why you wouldn't want to do this particular chore in-house, unless your entire team is billing hundreds per hour.
