## Summary

The Harmony Trust Ltd is conducting an outsourced catering tender for five of its schools located in Oldham, Greater Manchester. This open procedure tender has been classified under catering services and is at the award stage as of 26th February 2021. The contract has a total value of £3,569,000 and was set for a duration of three years, with options for two one-year extensions. Interested candidates were required to register on a specific platform to express their interest, although the tender has since been cancelled, eliminating further opportunity for participation.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the catering industry, particularly those that specialise in educational catering services. Companies that can demonstrate innovation, effective account management, and high-quality food presentation would be particularly well-suited to compete in future tenders of this nature. Given the public procurement framework, businesses should be prepared for similar upcoming contracts that may follow a comparable structure, offering further avenues for growth in the education sector.
