This procurement falls under the services category, specifically within the hotel, restaurant and retail trade services industry. The tender is currently at the active stage and is using an open procurement method, with submissions due by 12th November 2021. The framework will also be available for the University of Wolverhampton and University of Leicester, although the latter does not have an immediate need to utilise it. The estimated value of the framework is between £7,900,000 and £10,160,000, and the primary delivery address is located in Nottingham, in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in food and beverage services, particularly those with experience in establishing corporate relationships with renowned brands rather than operating as franchisees. Businesses with the capacity to manage direct supply agreements and meet the specific requirements of academic institutions would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The potential for ongoing relationships over the initial five-year franchise agreements, with options for extensions, further creates a stable environment for growth and revenue generation for successful bidders. ## Notice The University of Nottingham requests tenders from sufficiently experienced and qualified suppliers to establish a framework agreement for the provision of Internationally Recognised Coffee Brand. The framework tender process is being managed by the University of Nottingham with the framework, once awarded, being available for use by the University of Wolverhampton and University of Leicester (the Universities). Tenderer's should note, the University of Leicester does not have an immediate requirement to use this framework. A summary of requirements are provided below with further details available in the tender documentation. - The Universities wish to have a direct corporate relationship with the brand owner, they are not looking for a franchisee to operate these outlets. - The Universities use their own staff to operate these outlets and this will remain the case. The Universities will retain any revenue from sales and will agree levels of Royalties/marketing/delivery fees with the successful Franchisor. During quiet periods such as out of term periods where sales are low, the Universities would expect to negotiate a minimal Royalty percentage or minimum fees with the franchisor. - A Framework Agreement will be established for a period of 4 years commencing on 13th December 2021, or as otherwise agreed, and each University may contract within the terms of the framework within this period. - It is expected that each franchise agreement will run for a 5 year period with an option to extend for up to a further 5 years period.
