## Summary

The procurement process conducted by Queensbridge & Fox Hollies Schools in Birmingham, United Kingdom, pertains to the award of a contract for school catering services, appealing to those within the education and food service sectors. The contracting authority, a body governed by public law, initiated a selective procurement process under a restricted procedure, focused on services within the CPV classification 55524000. The contract, valued at £1,251,842 and awarded to abm catering limited, spans from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2028, with an extension option up to three years. The procurement stage was completed, and the contract was signed on 20th December 2024. The procurement took place in the UKG31 region, with all relevant activities centred around Birmingham.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses operating in the school catering and hospitality sectors, particularly those capable of meeting a guaranteed performance nature of a three-year service contract, with the possibility of extension. Though the contract has already been awarded, such opportunities are generally well-suited for large enterprises with experience in public sector catering due to the contract's scope and duration. However, prior to award, this tender was open to economic operators, including SMEs, which suggests similar future opportunities might encourage diverse participation. Businesses looking to engage in similar opportunities should prepare competitive bids that align with procurement criteria to capitalise on educational contracts within the region.
