## Summary

British Business Bank plc procured office catering services for its office at 8 Salisbury Square, London. The requirement covers catering for office networking lunches, board meetings and strategy-day events. This is a service contract, classified under CPV 55520000 for catering services, delivered in London. The buyer is a public limited company headquartered in Sheffield, while the catering activity is associated with its London office. The scope is suited to catering businesses able to provide workplace hospitality for professional events, including planned lunches and higher-profile internal meetings. The requirement is relevant to caterers operating in London with the organisation, staffing and service standards needed to support recurring corporate events across a two-year engagement.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a limited competitive quotation procedure below the public procurement threshold. The quotation deadline was 14 August 2026 at 17:00. The contract was awarded on 4 September 2026 to Berkeley Catering Limited, an SME, for £150,000. The contract period runs from 15 September 2026 to 14 September 2028. The award is active and the tender is complete. The published requirement identified SME suitability and excluded voluntary, community and social enterprises. The procurement was evaluated through the competitive quotation process; the available information does not set out separate quality, price or technical weightings. The award covers the full office catering requirement described for the London workplace and its business events.

For a catering supplier that did not win this contract, the award demonstrates established demand from British Business Bank plc for organised corporate catering in London. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to provide reliable office networking lunches as well as catering for board and strategy-day events, combining routine delivery with the ability to support important business gatherings. Relevant strengths would include dependable event planning, consistent food and service quality, sufficient operational capacity for recurring workplace orders, and professional coordination with an office-based client. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that the requirement can be delivered by a suitably capable smaller catering business rather than only by a national provider. London coverage and experience serving professional offices would be particularly relevant.
