Summary of the contracting process

The Police and Crime Commissioner for West Midlands, located at Lloyd House, Birmingham, has initiated a tender process for the provision of catering services with an active procurement stage. This opportunity is specifically for a zero-cost café service intended for police officers, staff, and visitors, alongside on-site hospitality catering. The procurement is categorised under canteen and catering services, with a contract value of £160,000 plus VAT. The tender period ends on 21 July 2026, with the enquiry period closing on 3 July 2026. Only businesses based in Birmingham, specifically SMEs and VCSEs, are eligible to participate due to the reserved participation requirement. The procurement method is open competition and is being managed via an e-tendering portal, necessitating registration with In-tend and submission on the Find a Tender service.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for local Birmingham-based SMEs and VCSEs within the catering industry.
