Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process concerns the provision of catering services for Suffolks Primary School, located in Enfield, London. The opportunity, titled "GB-Enfield: Schools Services, Catering," has been initiated as a tender due to an urgent need arising from the COVID-19 outbreak, which has prevented the existing supplier from fulfilling the contract terms. The procurement is currently in the Tender stage, with submissions due by 31 July 2020. This contract, valued at £500,000 with a minimum acceptance value of £100,000, will be governed by an open procedure under the Light Touch Regime, covering primary education services and running from 1 September 2020 to 31 August 2023.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) looking to expand their footprint in the education services sector. Businesses specialising in catering services, particularly those with experience navigating emergency procurement processes or providing services in educational environments, would be particularly well-suited to compete. The flexibility afforded by the Light Touch Regime may further enable these enterprises to adapt their offerings to meet the urgent demands of the school, fostering potential long-term partnerships.
