## Summary

Leicester City Council is in the planning stage of a public procurement process for a "Kitchen Management System" aimed at enhancing the efficiency of services provided by its City Catering team to local schools. The engagement phase concludes on 9th February 2021, with the procurement being classified under miscellaneous equipment (CPV code 39300000). The council is actively seeking market input to tailor the requirements of the tender, reflecting its commitment to streamlining operations within the catering service.

This tender represents a valuable opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in kitchen management solutions to engage with local government. Businesses that specialise in technology-driven catering solutions, software development, or operational improvement services would be particularly well-suited to participate. This initiative not only allows vendors to showcase innovative offerings but also contributes to strengthening the operational framework of Leicester's catering services in educational institutions.

## Notice

Leicester City Council is considering options to introduce a Kitchen Management system to improve the service our City Catering team provide to schools. We are interested in understanding the market, and whether vendors can supply a solution which would allow our City Catering service to provide a more professional service to our customers whilst streamlining back office processes. Before commencing a formal tender process, we are keen to seek market information from organisations that may have an interest or expertise in this field. - The information provided will be used to help inform and shape the requirements in our specification.
