Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, titled "Food to Go - Sandwiches", has been completed by the Midlands Partnership Foundation Trust, a public entity in Stafford, United Kingdom. The contract falls under the 'goods' category, specifically for prepared sandwiches, classified with CPV code 15811511. Though the tender process has reached the award stage, one of the lots was marked as cancelled. The procurement method used was 'limited', entailing an award procedure without the prior publication of a call for competition, justified by its classification outside the scope of the directive. The contract, which was signed on 28 April 2025, is valued at £320,000 with the local region being specified as UKG2.

This tender offers distinct opportunities for businesses within the prepared foods and catering sectors. Large-scale suppliers, like Tiffin Sandwiches Ltd, who specialise in the production and delivery of sandwiches, were found well-suited to hold the contract, as evidenced by their successful bid. Businesses that can demonstrate efficiency in high-volume food production, competitive pricing, and reliable delivery services would be advantageous contenders in similar procurement processes. This provides a pathway for business expansion and solidifying relationships with healthcare institutions like the NHS, which frequently require such goods for patient and retail food services.
