There is a requirement for Food Hygiene and Standards Inspections: The Council, as part of its statutory duties, is required to carry out food hygiene and standards inspections across the city. There are approximately 11,100 food businesses in Birmingham, ranging from small independent outlets to large national and international chains. Each year, the Council aims to complete between 4,500 and 5,000 primary inspections, in accordance with the Food Law Code of Practice. These inspections may be conducted at any type or size of food business, many of which are located in inner-city areas. A number of operators may have limited understanding of food safety and food law requirements. • To ensure thorough compliance, inspections typically include: • Food hygiene checks • Food standards assessments • Duty of Care inspections, confirming appropriate refuse disposal arrangements. This procurement relates to a call-off under a Framework Agreement, which does not guarantee or commit any level of expenditure. The successful provider appointed to the contract will be engaged on an as-needed basis, depending on inspection demand and the availability of internal resources. The framework agreement is anticipated to commence in July 2026 and will be in place for a period of 4 years . The Council wishes to establish a single supplier framework agreement contract. ## Lots (1) ### Lot 1: Untitled lot - **Lot id:** `1` - **Status:** complete - **CPV codes:** 38910000, 85142300, 90714000, 90714200, 90714300, 90714400 - **Delivery regions:** UKG - **Delivery countries in notice:** GB - **Estimated Value:** £480,000 - **Contract Period:** 07/06/2026 to 07/06/2030 ## Awards & Winning Suppliers (1) - **Award:** Provision of Food Inspections for Regulation and Enforcement Services (active) - Award id: `1` - Supplier(s): **Osborne Richardson** - Supplier identifiers: `GB-FTS-160726` - Value: £479,675 (exc.
