Coverage: 1 active published awards; 2 bid reports (which may be per lot). Supplier values exclude multi-supplier awards, frameworks and DPS, and use GBP only. They are published award values, not payments. Price reduction compares single-lot, single-award, single-supplier GBP procedures with explicitly non-framework/non-DPS status; increases remain in the average. Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
The Trust serves over 19,000 young people aged 2 to 19 in a diverse array of settings, with around 2,500 employees. Our schools are in Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Hampshire, Surrey, West Sussex and the London Boroughs of Wandsworth and Croydon.
The Trust is seeking experienced caterers to provide high quality school catering services across the Trust, currently there are 8 secondary schools and 35 primary schools. It is anticipated the majority of the schools will be in scope, however the final number of schools will be defined later in the process.
It is expected the contract will be divided into Lots, with bidders given the opportunity to apply for some or all of the various Lots.
