Summary of the contracting process

Haslingden High School is buying a hot chicken wrap food concept through a supply and distribution framework. The requirement covers prepared food products, including chicken and other meat products, for the school and potentially other public-sector organisations across the UK. Eligible users may include government bodies, NHS organisations, councils, emergency services, schools, hospices, charities, national parks and registered social landlords. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The framework is managed for the school and participating public bodies by Dukefield Limited.

The buyer invited offers through an open tender procedure. The framework has one lot and can appoint up to two suppliers; call-offs may be made with or without reopening competition. The enquiry deadline was 12 October 2026 at 12:00, and the submission deadline was 20 October 2026 at 12:00. The planned contract period runs from 20 December 2026 to 19 December 2030, with award scheduled by 2 November 2026. The stated contract value is £14.5 million. Evaluation gives price a 60% weighting and quality 40%. Electronic submission is allowed, and bids must be in English. A successful supplier pays a fee of 4% of the award value.

This opportunity suits food suppliers able to provide and distribute a hot chicken wrap offer for schools and a broad range of UK public-sector organisations. Small and medium-sized businesses are explicitly considered suitable, and the framework is limited to two suppliers, so bidders should be prepared to serve multiple public bodies at scale. A strong offer will need to demonstrate competitive pricing and the quality of its food and service, as these are the stated evaluation factors. The framework’s national reach and four-year term may suit established food-service businesses with the operational capacity to supply participating organisations across the UK. Successful suppliers should factor the 4% award-value fee into their commercial approach.
