This procurement process is classified as an open procedure and is currently in the Tender stage. The deadline for submissions is 6 March 2020, with the contract expected to commence on 30 April 2020 and run until 31 March 2030. The opportunity falls under the catering services industry category, specifically focusing on high-quality food and beverage offerings to cater for a diverse customer base that includes over 1 million annual visitors and 30,000 university students and staff. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the food and beverage sector, particularly those capable of providing both wet and dry services efficiently and at high volumes. Suitable applicants may include established catering firms, bars, or restaurant operators with experience in high-demand environments, especially those familiar with university or arts centre hospitality. Companies that can deliver exceptional service while managing peak periods of consumer demand will be particularly well-placed to compete for this lucrative contract. ## Notice The University of Warwick is seeking expressions of interest for the grant of a concession to operate a Premium High Street (recognised) Bar Restaurant and Theatre Bar Concept from our newly refurbished, expanded and radically transformed Warwick Arts Centre. December 2020 will see the completion of one of the UK's unique Artist venues, offering galleries, cinemas and high volume theatre halls. We not only look forward to welcoming over 1 million visitors per annum, but playing a key role in the lives and experiences of over 30,000 students and staff on campus. As part of this PS30m investment we are seeking a high quality Food & Beverage offer and operator. The offer will be over two key locations, with a high volume bar led restaurant / food offer set out over 600 sq.ms., taking the prominent lead in the front of the building and the second location being a theatre break out bar in the heart of the Centre. Your organisation will be at a scale that is able to offer both Wet & Dry categories to not only a high quality but at volume and speed. We anticipate these units to be under high demand with peeks of extreme demand. Our consumers range in terms of their use of the facilities but are consistent in terms of the quality offer and delivery they expect.
