Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Kingfisher Learning Trust has initiated a public procurement process for the provision of catering services across eleven primary schools located in Greater Manchester. Managed by Michael Unsworth, the Trust's COO, the procurement is currently in the tender stage, with significant deadlines including the tender submission end date on 28th March 2025 and the invitation date for the second stage on 28th April 2025. The contract, valued at £3,750,000, will commence in September 2025 and run for an initial period of three years, with the possibility of two annual extensions. This procurement falls under the services category, specifically school catering services, with a procurement method of selective procedure allowing for variant bids.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses, especially SMEs, due to the large contract value and the extensive service coverage across multiple educational institutions. Food service providers and catering companies with experience in educational settings are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. The Trust's consideration of variant bids means that innovative solutions might gain an edge, provided a conforming bid is also submitted. This procurement process could foster business growth through steady revenue streams and enhanced visibility within the Greater Manchester educational sector.
