Summary of the contracting process

The Bank of England has awarded a contract for Catering Services 2020 - Modification Notice to Elior UK PLC. The contract, valued at £9,635,427 GBP, covers catering services at three sites in London and Loughton. The selective procurement method used involved a restricted procedure. The contract period runs from March 1, 2020, to February 28, 2023, with relief funding expected to be required until the end of the contract.

This tender provides business opportunities for companies in the canteen and catering services industry. Businesses with experience in providing catering services to large organisations, such as restaurants or catering companies, may find this tender suitable for growth. The Bank of England, as the buying organisation, sought to right-size the contract due to decreased footfall caused by the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent work-from-home guidance, indicating a need for ongoing support in catering services.

Notice Title

Catering Services 2020 - Modification Notice

Notice Description

The Bank of England has a requirement for the provision of catering services at three of its sites, London EC2R 8AH, London EC2R 6DA and Loughton IG10 3TN. The original contract (notice 2020/S 006-009040) Contract was previously modified in notice 2021/S 012-026476 to provide relief due to Covid-19. This previous notice covered a period from May 2020 up to February 2021, and increased the value by PS343,817.00. The initial contract was signed in September 2019, with the cost based on historic usage data of the Bank's catering offerings. The Covid-19 pandemic and government mandated lockdowns precipitated a sustained period of work from home guidance, and this resulted in a much-reduced footfall into the Bank between March 2020 and January 2022. In line with the contract, and despite re-scoping of the catering provision, financial relief was required to maintain contract viability. Whilst usage has recovered markedly through 2022, we expect relief to continue to be required, albeit to a lesser extent, for the remainder of the contract. The contract will be reviewed and appropriate strategies put in place to most effectively and appropriately right-size the contract.
