## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service (SPS), a national agency focused on public order and safety located in Edinburgh, is in the procurement phase to supply hot food trolleys across its sites. This tender falls under the goods category, specifically catering equipment, with the intention of improving kitchen operations across the SPS estate. The procurement process is following the open procedure, and the anticipated deadline for tender submissions is 3rd November 2023. The procurement status is currently active, with the potential for a contract period of 1080 days, and an extension of an additional 36 months available. The project aims to deliver durable, all-terrain hot food trolleys to address the logistical challenges posed by varied outdoor conditions.

This procurement project presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in manufacturing catering equipment, particularly those with expertise in producing durable and versatile solutions for demanding environments. Small and medium enterprises, such as Corsair Engineering Ltd, which secured the previous contract award on 10th June 2024 with a value of £258,624, demonstrate the competitive nature of the tender. With the emphasis on quality (30%) and price (70%), businesses equipped to deliver high-quality, cost-effective solutions are encouraged to participate. With an electronic submission method and the potential for electronic invoicing and payments, businesses with streamlined digital capabilities may have an advantage in the submission process.

## Notice

The SPS requires a contract for the provision of Hot Food Trolleys across the SPS estate. The SPS cater on site and Hot Food Trolleys are an essential piece of kitchen equipment for SPS Establishments. The distance from halls to the kitchen can be long and therefore, to preserve the food and keep it warm, hot food trolleys are required. The Hot Food Trolleys shall be utilised both indoors and outdoors. The outdoor conditions consist of various surfaces (e.g. paving slabs, road tar, monobloc, rough ground, slopes) therefore they shall be suitable for all-terrain purposes.
