The School is seeking a suitably experienced contractor who has current experience of working within the primary education sector. They should be able to demonstrate the knowledge and understanding of contracts of a similar size and operational style within a reasonable travelling distance of the School. This contract will reward maximising sales and FSM uptake through pro-active management and consistently high levels of food quality and tangible contract support. The School and CCL expect the successful Contractor to guarantee their financial proposal within reason and deliver excellent standards. The business manager and SLT have requested that in this tender exercise the bidders focus on: A TUPE Compliant Bid with additional recommendations on service equipment, serving points, staffing levels and a bespoke food concept to drive sales and uptake.In short, the School needs to be convinced the bidders are able to deliver their promises, achieve their sales targets, deliver their service enhancements in full and support the School. Should the School not be convinced of this they reserve the right to revert to an ‘insourced’ solution or post no award. Any investment proposals will need to be consistent with ESFA guidelines.
