## Notice

Meller Educational Trust (MET) is a multi academy trust based in Hertfordshire with seven academies and University Technical Colleges, primarily based around Watford, South Hertfordshire and Hillingdon.The MET is seeking to centrally procure catering services across the Trust. In the first instance, this will encompass the Bushey Academy, Francis Combe Academy, the Hertswood Academy and Watford UTC with the potential to extend to other schools within the Trust as their current arrangements end, and as the Trust grows. The services may vary between academies to suit the local demographic, site facilities and student numbers, and we would expect bidders to take each school's needs into account. Equally, the contract terms must be favourable to each institution within the Trust, and we reserve the right for each academy to determine value for money of the arrangement for their circumstance.
