What is being bought

This process is a re-tender of the current Outsourced Catering Services Framework let by CPC and expiring in September 2026. CPC intends to put in place an Open Framework for the appointment of outsourced facilities suppliers who specialise in catering services, across education and also the wider public sector. The purpose of this Framework is to give CPC members a compliant route to market. The collective spending power of Members utilising CPC frameworks is harnessed to drive down costs, which often allows for savings delivery which our membership otherwise would be unable to achieve individually. The Open framework will consist of 3 or 4 frameworks within the series, dependant on extensions. It is intended for the series to conclude on 04/10/2034. CPC will be using the MultiQuote e-Tendering platform to carry out this tender. In order to express your interest in this tender and obtain the tender documents, please register or log in at: https://suppliers.multiquote.com/Page/Login.aspx If you have any issues when using MultiQuote, please contact Elcom Ltd on 020 3920 8054 or email support@elcom.com

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 559614 median · 11.6 average (267 of 961 with a bid count)1.9 average (275 of 961 with named award suppliers)Not published

Delivery region: UK1224.5 median · 14.3 average (48 of 122 with a bid count)3.9 average (50 of 122 with named award suppliers)Not published
Similar published value (0.5×–2×)7Not publishedNot publishedNot 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.

    "description": "This process is a re-tender of the current Outsourced Catering Services Framework let by CPC and expiring in September 2026.\nCPC intends to put in place an Open Framework for the appointment of outsourced facilities suppliers who specialise in catering services, across education and also the wider public sector. The purpose of this Framework is to give CPC members a compliant route to market. The collective spending power of Members utilising CPC frameworks is harnessed to drive down costs, which often allows for savings delivery which our membership otherwise would be unable to achieve individually.\nThe Open framework will consist of 3 or 4 frameworks within the series, dependant on extensions. It is intended for the series to conclude on 04/10/2034.\nCPC will be using the MultiQuote e-Tendering platform to carry out this tender. In order to express your interest in this tender and obtain the tender documents, please register or log in at: https://suppliers.multiquote.com/Page/Login.aspx  If you have any issues when using MultiQuote, please contact Elcom Ltd on 020 3920 8054 or email support@elcom.com",

    "description": "This process is a re-tender of the current Outsourced Catering Services Framework let by CPC and expiring in September 2026.\nCPC intends to put in place an Open Framework for the appointment of outsourced facilities suppliers who specialise in catering services, across education and also the wider public sector. The purpose of this Framework is to give CPC members a compliant route to market. The collective spending power of Members utilising CPC frameworks is harnessed to drive down costs, which often allows for savings delivery which our membership otherwise would be unable to achieve individually.\nThe Open framework will consist of 3 or 4 frameworks within the series, dependant on extensions. It is intended for the series to conclude on 04/10/2034.\nCPC will be using the MultiQuote e-Tendering platform to carry out this tender. In order to express your interest in this tender and obtain the tender documents, please register or log in at: https://suppliers.multiquote.com/Page/Login.aspx  If you have any issues when using MultiQuote, please contact Elcom Ltd on 020 3920 8054 or email support@elcom.com",

    "description": "This process is a re-tender of the current Outsourced Catering Services Framework let by CPC and expiring in September 2026.\nCPC intends to put in place an Open Framework for the appointment of outsourced facilities suppliers who specialise in catering services, across education and also the wider public sector. The purpose of this Framework is to give CPC members a compliant route to market. The collective spending power of Members utilising CPC frameworks is harnessed to drive down costs, which often allows for savings delivery which our membership otherwise would be unable to achieve individually.\nThe Open framework will consist of 3 or 4 frameworks within the series, dependant on extensions. It is intended for the series to conclude on 04/10/2034.\nCPC will be using the MultiQuote e-Tendering platform to carry out this tender. In order to express your interest in this tender and obtain the tender documents, please register or log in at: https://suppliers.multiquote.com/Page/Login.aspx  If you have any issues when using MultiQuote, please contact Elcom Ltd on 020 3920 8054 or email support@elcom.com",

It is intended for the series to conclude on 04/10/2034.\nCPC will be using the MultiQuote e-Tendering platform to carry out this tender.
