## Summary

The Chosen Hill School Cluster has initiated a catering tender process, which encompasses contracts for catering services across Chosen Hill, Farmor’s, and Cirencester Kingshill Schools located in Gloucestershire. The procurement falls under the services category, specifically targeting school catering services. The process is currently in the active stage, with submissions due by 25 February 2022. Bidders are expected to submit separate applications for three distinct lots, with the potential contracts extending from 1 August 2022 until 31 July 2025, with an option for a further two-year extension. Interested suppliers must adhere to a selective procurement method, which includes thorough economic and technical criteria evaluation.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) within the catering sector, specifically those capable of providing high-quality food services tailored to educational needs. Businesses with a robust supply chain, particularly those that can source fresh ingredients from local producers within a 25-mile radius of the schools, will be well-positioned to compete. The contracts offer not only a stable and potentially lucrative revenue stream but also allow businesses to demonstrate their commitment to local sourcing and community-oriented service delivery.
