## Summary

The University of East Anglia is currently in the Tender stage of procurement for the contract titled "PURCON779A Fresh and Frozen Butchers Meat and Poultry". This procurement, categorised under Animal products, meat and meat products, is based in Norfolk, specifically at the university's campus. The tender period is set to close on 26 October 2018, with the contract expected to commence on 19 November 2018 and run until 18 November 2019. The anticipated annual spend for this procurement is £40,000, though no volume commitments will be made.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for local suppliers of meat and poultry, particularly businesses specialising in East Anglian produce. Competitors would benefit from understanding the local market and establishing relationships with the university's catering team, which aims to enhance its offering at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts by sourcing high-quality local products. As the university is looking to establish a framework rather than commit to specific volumes upfront, this tender may be appealing to smaller suppliers who can provide flexibility and localised service.

## Notice

The University has an in-house Catering team that manage a hospitality department and a number of outlets across Campus. This includes the Catering provision at the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts (SCVA), one of the most prominent art galleries in Britain. The offering at the SCVA is targeted at a different type of clientele to the rest of the University; customers tend to be staff and external visitors rather than students. The Catering Team have been promoting local produce within this venue and would like to source a supplier that can support them with a range of local (East Anglian) meat and poultry. The Catering team is seeking to establish a framework for the provision of fresh and frozen butcher's meat and poultry predominantly for the SCVA although small volumes may be purchased for the other outlets. The Catering team use a National TUCO framework for the majority of their meat supply, however, the large National suppliers cannot meet the requirement for local produce and therefore we are establishing this framework to fill the gap in supply. It anticipated that the annual spend will be PS40k, however no commitment to volumes will be made.
