Lot 2 - Level G Public Restaurant and Foyer Cafes

Level G public restaurant: This assisted service restaurant is capable of absorbing high volumes at times of peak demand. It is popular at lunchtime attracting a consistent destination customer group made up of staff, local workers and residents and is populated by these users throughout the day for social occasions, meetings and as an outlet for take away service. At weekends and during school holidays the Barbican Kitchen is the catering outlet most regularly taken up by families visiting the Barbican. Level G café: The café on level G sits at the centre of our ground floor foyer and is the catering outlet with the longest trading hours. We are not wedded to the idea of a branded coffee offer from this coffee point, but do want to ensure that the quality of the coffee range is commensurate with the best of independent coffee shops in the area. A good range of soft drinks, sandwiches, filled breads and snacks should also be available. Level - 1 café: This café opens according to programme operating chiefly around the Hall and Theatre though it does sometimes service Business Events. The range sold should be similar to that from Level G.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 55. The category anchor is Catering services (55520000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 552,3924 median · 12.4 average (929 of 2,392 with a bid count)1.8 average (963 of 2,392 with named award suppliers)Not published
Same buyer1420 median · 420 average (1 of 1 with a bid count)14 average (1 of 1 with named award suppliers)Not published
Delivery region: UK2674 median · 25.5 average (95 of 267 with a bid count)4.9 average (104 of 267 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

At weekends and during school holidays the Barbican Kitchen is the catering outlet most regularly taken up by families visiting the Barbican.\nLevel G café:\nThe café on level G sits at the centre of our ground floor foyer and is the catering outlet with the longest trading hours.

A good range of soft drinks, sandwiches, filled breads and snacks should also be available.\nLevel - 1 café:\nThis café opens according to programme operating chiefly around the Hall and Theatre though it does sometimes service Business Events.
