Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Lincolnshire has concluded a procurement process titled "Provision of Chilled, Ambient, and Frozen Catering Provision," falling under the goods category of catering supplies. This tender, now at the award stage, was part of a direct award using the YPO 1114 Food Deal 2 and was managed through a selective procurement method involving a call-off from a framework agreement. The procurement covers the Lincolnshire area with a postal code LN5 7PH and involves a contract valued at £54,000. The contract period commenced on October 6, 2025, and is set to end on April 5, 2027. The tender was noted for its suitability for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), though not specifically targeting voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs).

This procurement offers growth opportunities for businesses in the food and catering supply industry, particularly those capable of providing a range of chilled, ambient, and frozen products. Brake Food Service Limited, a supplier identified as an SME, was the successful bidder, signifying that similar-sized businesses with a strong portfolio in catering supplies could be well-positioned to compete in future tenders of this nature. The completion of this procurement highlights the potential market for catering supplies within local law enforcement agencies and indicates an ongoing demand in the public sector for reliable suppliers capable of meeting specific requirements within defined timeframes and budgets.
