St John Bosco Catering Tender 2024

St John Bosco Arts College are seeking to procure a provider for catering services. The provision of the service must demonstrate the best value approach and be flexible in its delivery and operation to ensure that the needs and ethos of the school are supported. This tender process is targeted to have a catering contract in place to commence in January 2025. Please note that this process covers all catering services within St John Bosco Arts College with full tender costings and proposals for the school for a contract start in January 2025. These details will be further explained in the ITT documents. The process will include the creation of a select bidder list following analysis of SQ documents (within which the scoring criteria is included). The nature of the contract demands a good local infrastructure to provide and maintain the level and standard of catering service and support required by the school. Labour resource/relief cover is very important. We have set a minimum level of turnover for this tender at 250,000 GBP which takes into account the contract turnover and cash flow associations. This is a discretionary pass/fail question on the basis that we will consider any additional guarantees and formal assurances such as parent company guarantors or similar which must be included to support any submission. We have set a minimum Employer's (compulsory) liability insurance of 10,000,000 GBP. Following the analysis of SQ’s the selected bidders will be invited to attend a site survey and tender briefing initially planned for late June 2024. Tender responses deadline is planned as late August 2024 and it is envisaged that interviews will take place in October 2024. The contract will be for a 3 +1 +1 period (5 years in total including the option to extend for 1 + 1years).
