UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Bolton Impact Trust is procuring a framework for the supply and distribution of a Hot Pizza Concept. The requirement covers food and related products, including prepared bread products, prepared meals and deep-frozen products. Dukefield Limited is managing the tender and will manage the framework contract on behalf of the Trust and eligible end users. The framework can be used by contracting authorities across the UK public sector, including government departments, NHS bodies, local authorities, emergency services, educational establishments, hospices, registered charities and social landlords. Delivery is required across the United Kingdom. This is a goods opportunity for food manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and specialist public-sector catering suppliers able to provide and distribute the required pizza-related product range.

The process has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. It is a framework agreement with up to two participants, with contracts awarded with or without reopening competition. The enquiry deadline is 5 October 2026 at 12:00, and the tender submission deadline is 12 October 2026 at 12:00. The expected award decision date is 27 October 2026. The framework contract is scheduled to run from 8 December 2026 to 7 December 2030. Its maximum estimated value is £5,805,000 including taxes. Electronic submission is allowed in English through the stated e-sourcing portal. Selection covers economic and technical criteria. Offers will be evaluated on quality at 40% and price at 60%. A successful supplier pays a 3% award-related fee.

This opportunity suits food manufacturers, prepared-meal producers, frozen-food specialists, food wholesalers and nationwide distribution businesses with the capability to supply a Hot Pizza Concept consistently across the UK. Suppliers should be able to provide prepared bread products, prepared meals and deep-frozen products, together with reliable storage, logistics and delivery arrangements for public-sector end users. The procurement is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, so smaller specialist suppliers may be able to compete, either independently or through a delivery partnership. Economic and technical selection requirements apply, making financial standing, operational capacity, food-sector systems and evidence of technical competence important. Businesses with experience supplying multiple public-sector or institutional customers, and with the capacity to support framework call-offs with or without further competition, are particularly well placed.
