Lot Description: The University has a requirement for a supplier to provide a catering delivery service to handle requirements that cannot be fulfilled by the in-house service from ACE (Accommodation, Catering & Events). The supplier needs to be able to fulfil catering requirements throughout the year and be able to deliver to multiple areas across the University. It is required to be competitively priced and at a specified quality and health & safety standard. ACE should be first-choice for users at the University for catering with external supplier support needed when ACE reach capacity and there are catering requests they are unable to fulfil. A successful outcome would be to have a supplier in place for users to select who are ready to pick up the additional catering demand from across the University as/when required. The âPartnershipâ element which is referenced throughout this tender is defined as a vision for a collaborative working relationship with the successful bidder to maintain a continuity of service for catering in instances such as surges in demand or seasonal variances experienced throughout the course of the contract period. The contract will be in place for an initial term of 2 years, with three options to extend for periods of 1-year each (2+1+1+1). The estimated total contract value is based on forecast spend over a 5 year period. The University does not guarantee any volume of product during the length of the contract. Volume is solely dependent on demand. All figures noted within the tender package are indicative only.
