Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Sir Roger Manwood's School, which is located in Sandwich, UK, and pertains to the provision of school catering services. The title of the tender is "Reference number: RM&C/2019/105." This contract was awarded to Independent Catering through a limited procurement method without prior publication of a call for competition, due to extreme urgency linked to the Covid-19 pandemic. The award was finalised on 18th December 2020, with a total value of £195,000. The procurement status is complete.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in catering services, particularly those equipped to manage school meal programmes. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be well-suited to compete, especially those with experience in delivering quality service on a flexible basis. The unique context of the procurement, prompted by the need to swiftly replace an incumbent supplier, creates an opening for capable providers who can demonstrate strong service delivery and cost effectiveness to engage successfully in future contracts.
