Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust procured the supply of Gastronorm containers, classified as food containers (CPV 39221130). These are standardised catering containers used for food handling, storage and service. Delivery is associated with the Trust’s site on Hucknall Road, Nottingham, and the wider East Midlands area. The requirement is for goods rather than works or services, and was placed by the Trust for its own operational needs. The named supplier is Burlodge Limited, an SME that supplies catering-related equipment. Businesses active in manufacturing, distributing or supplying Gastronorm containers and comparable professional food-service equipment would recognise the requirement as part of the NHS catering consumables and equipment market.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a selective call-off from the NHS Supply Chain framework for Catering Consumables and Equipment 2021, rather than through an open tender. The tender submission deadline was 30 November 2024 at 12:00 GMT. Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust awarded the contract to Burlodge Limited on 1 December 2024. The awarded value is £133,557.36, and the contract runs from 1 December 2024 to 30 November 2028. The earlier estimated procurement value was £133,557. The award is active. The requirement was not divided into lots. Evaluation was conducted within the framework call-off route, with the procurement recorded as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this award, the procurement indicates established demand from Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust for professional Gastronorm containers bought through a national NHS catering framework. A credible competitor would need a dependable range of food containers suitable for institutional catering, reliable supply and distribution to hospital operations in Nottingham and the East Midlands, and the capacity to support a requirement of this scale. Experience supplying NHS, healthcare, public-sector or other large catering organisations would help demonstrate operational understanding. Businesses would also need to understand how to secure a place on, or work through, the relevant catering consumables and equipment framework, because this requirement was awarded as a framework call-off rather than an open competition.
