Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Ireland Education Authority (EA) is conducting an open procurement process titled "CAT-20-005 Fresh Fish," aimed at sourcing the supply and delivery of fresh fish to school meals kitchens and various educational institutions across Northern Ireland. This procurement falls under the goods category within the food industry, specifically targeting fish fillets and related products. The initial framework period is set from 1 August 2021 to 31 July 2022, with potential extensions for an additional three periods of up to 12 months each. The deadline for submitting bids was 19 July 2021, with the tender adjudication beginning shortly thereafter.

This tender presents significant opportunities for suppliers specialising in fish products, particularly those with established experience in regular supply chains. Businesses involved in fishing, food distribution, or those with capabilities in delivering fresh produce to educational institutions would be well-placed to compete. With a total contract value approximating £492,000, this initiative not only supports the provision of nutritious meals in schools but also allows suppliers to forge important relationships within the educational sector, which could lead to future partnerships and growth within the market.
