Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Anthem Schools Trust has concluded a procurement process for the provision of catering services across several educational institutions, namely St Mark's Academy, Oakbank School, Oxford Spires Academy, and Gladstone Park Primary School, located in the London region of the United Kingdom. This procurement, classified in the School catering services industry under the CPV code 55524000, followed a selective procurement method through a Restricted procedure. The tender process included a crucial end date on 7th July 2025, and the contract is scheduled to be active from 1st August 2025 to 31st July 2030. The procurement process is now at the award stage, with Innovate Services Ltd chosen as the supplier for the contract valued at £3,695,000 GBP.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for companies in the school catering sector, particularly those with the capacity to fulfil comprehensive service requirements including breakfast, lunch, and hospitality provisions. Given the scale of the contract, larger enterprises like Innovate Services Ltd are well-suited to meet the demands of such extensive catering services. However, the procurement method, being a Restricted procedure, potentially offers selective opportunities for SMEs who can demonstrate capability in this area, though the suitability assessment indicates that it was not directly targeted towards voluntary and community social enterprises (VCSE).
