Selection Stage - Pre-Selection Questionnaire (PSQ) Interested suppliers are required to complete and submit a Pre-Selection Questionnaire (PSQ). The PSQ will be assessed in accordance with the stated pass/fail criteria and any minimum requirements. Bidders who meet all mandatory selection requirements will be invited to participate in the next stage. 2. Invitation to Tender (ITT) Stage All bidders who successfully pass the PSQ stage will be issued with the Invitation to Tender (ITT). At this stage, bidders will be required to submit detailed responses to: Quality questions, addressing the technical and service-related requirements; and Commercial requirements, including pricing information and any supporting financial documentation. All submissions will be evaluated in accordance with the published evaluation methodology. Following evaluation and internal moderation, the highest-scoring bidders will be shortlisted. 3. Presentation and Product Evaluation Stage Shortlisted bidders will be invited to attend a presentation and product evaluation session. As part of this session, bidders will be requested to provide a selection of food products chosen in advance by the project team. These products will be evaluated against a strict and pre-defined evaluation criterion, which may include quality, taste, presentation, innovation, and suitability for the required service. Scores from the presentation and product evaluation will be combined with the ITT scores to determine the final ranking of bidders. 4. Contract Award Following completion of all stages and final moderation, the Contracting Authority will identify the most economically advantageous tender and proceed to award the contract in line with the procurement regulations."
