Summary of the contracting process

The Northern Ireland Prison Service (NIPS), operating under the Department of Justice NI, has concluded a procurement process for the supply and delivery of meat and poultry items for Northern Ireland's prisons. This procurement focused on goods classified under the industry category of meat, with the contracts split into seven distinct lots: Fresh Beef, Fresh Pork, Fresh Lamb, Fresh Poultry, Frozen Meat Products, Cooked Meat Products, and Processed Meat Products. The procurement, governed by an open procedure, began in late 2024, with key dates including a tender closing extension to 16 January 2025 and a series of contract signings on 15 April 2025. The contracts are intended for a duration of five years with no extensions and cover the UK region, specifically Northern Ireland. The process adhered to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015, including a standstill period for potential tender challenges.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses involved in the meat supply chain and related sectors. Companies specialising in fresh and frozen meat distribution, along with those providing processed or cooked products, are particularly suited to fulfil these contracts. The substantial contract values, spread across the seven lots, indicate a steady demand and potential for consistent business growth. With each lot valued up to several hundred thousand GBP, large-scale suppliers capable of maintaining rigorous quality control, effective contract management, and adherence to human rights and supply chain standards would find this an advantageous engagement. Although the suppliers' details are withheld for security reasons, the opportunity remains viable for those in compliance with procurement standards in the UK.

This is to protect such contractors, whose security and safety could be threatened by dissident terrorist organisations still active in Northern Ireland if their details became known. This is consistent with Regulation 50(6)(a). The contract value listed is a broad estimate only and includes additional quantum for unforeseen demand and to future proof for additional potential. There is no guarantee of any level of business under this contract. The estimate is not deemed to be a condition of contract nor a guarantee of minimum demand or uptake. No compensation will be payable to a contractor should the actual demand be less than that stated. Contract Monitoring: The successful contractor's performance on this contract will be managed as per specification and regularly monitored Contractors not delivering on contract requirements is a serious matter. It means the public purse is not getting what it is paying for. If a contractor fails to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance they will be given a specified time to improve. If, after the specified time, they still fail to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance, the matter will be escalated to senior management in Construction and Procurement Delivery for further action. If this occurs and their performance still does not improve to satisfactory levels within the specified period, it may be regarded as an act of grave professional misconduct and they may be issued with a notice of written warning and notice of unsatisfactory performance and this contract may be terminated. The issue of a notice of written warning and notice of unsatisfactory performance will result in the contractor being excluded from all procurement competitions being undertaken by Centres of Procurement Expertise on behalf of bodies covered by the Northern Ireland Procurement Policy for a period of up to 3 years from the date of issue of the notice.",
