This initiative, which falls within the catering services industry, aims to enhance the packaging used in their food-to-go offerings at their 14 campus cafes and large refectory. The tender is in the Active stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 21 March 2018. The anticipated contract period is from 4 April 2018 to 17 September 2018, with a total contract value of £50,000, and a minimum value of £25,000. The procurement method is classified as an open procedure. This tender represents a valuable opportunity for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) specialising in business development and catering consultancy services. Companies that are well-equipped to refine food branding and packaging strategies will be particularly suited to compete, as the University of Leeds seeks innovative solutions to face competition from both external retailers and their own food service offerings. Participating in this tender can enable businesses to not only establish a working relationship with a prominent institution but also expand their portfolio in the academic sector. ## Notice Great Food at Leeds (GFAL) (the name for Catering Services at the University of Leeds) are embarking on a new project to examine the packaging used across their in-house freshly made retail food to go portfolio. This is happening hand-in-hand with a review of the food to go retail items product portfolio. This retail portfolio consists of 14 cafes across campus and a large refectory space. The main food to go items prepared in house are a range of sandwiches, salads and food pots. In addition, there is also the need to examine the coffee cup presently used. Whilst being on a University campus, there is still tough competition from external retail outlets and also competition from our own Students Union that provide a range of grab and go options. http://gfal.leeds.ac.uk/where-to-eat/ Additional information: The contracting authority considers that this contract may be suitable for economic operators that are small or medium enterprises (SMEs). However, any selection of tenderers will be based solely on the criteria set out for the procurement. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f5d84f2a-e0fa-4029-ab03-9f9844363597 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 14 Mar 2018 | | Submission deadline | 21 Mar 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 3 Apr 2018 - 17 Sep 2018 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £50,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS | | Locality | LEEDS | | Post town | Leeds | | Postcode | LS2 9JU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE42 Leeds | | Local authority | Leeds | | Electoral ward | Little London & Woodhouse | | Westminster constituency | Leeds Central and Headingley | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 55 - Hotel, restaurant and retail trade services - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 55520000 - Catering services - 79411100 - Business development consultancy services - 79415000 - Production management consultancy services ## Release History - 14 Mar 2018 at 16:32 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f5d84f2a-e0fa-4029-ab03-9f9844363597 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/f5d84f2a-e0fa-4029-ab03-9f9844363597 14th March 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.delta-esourcing.com/tenders/UK-GB-Leeds:-Z/3210-Catering-Branding-Consultancy/SCJ7PSKK44 Please follow this link to view the notice. ## Notice URLs - http://gfal.leeds.ac.uk/where-to-eat/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
