The system must be able to meet the following requirements: Our needs range from small cafe areas with limited F&B provision to restaurants with extensive offerings, including self-service and order/pay from table via an app or web browser. Additionally, the system must support stock allocation from a central delivery location to satellite sites and integrate with our existing F&B suppliers for the purposes of ordering. Our cultural and outdoor recreation facilities also sell retail items such as books, jewellery, pottery, paintings, and gifts in retail shops / online retail, the EPOS system must accommodate these transactions. The system should handle (but not limited to) flexible venue ticketing and pricing, bundled pricing (e.g., tickets with F&B), e-ticketing, promotions, event and workshop management, facility memberships, loyalty programmes, and promotions with coupons, discounts, and offers. Mobile selling capabilities via handheld tablet devices are essential for flexibility across our facilities. The system must be cloud-based with a multi-site, real-time back-office system for monitoring and analysis at both site-specific and collective levels, offering comprehensive financial and stock data reports. We would like to invite interested parties to email Richard Stradling at rstradling@carmarthenshire.gov.uk to arrange an online engagement meeting via Teams. Early market engagement process will take place week commencing 8th September 2025.

The system should be able to manage both catering and retail operations as well as having the capability to offer additional functionality detailed in the specification below, to help facilities manage their daily financial transactions with a key driver being to reduce costs, drive sales and deliver better customer service. The EPOS system will be installed in cafes and restaurants within leisure-based facilities such as leisure centres, country parks, small hotel, museums, art venues and theatres. The system will be expected to help facilitate the daily operation of such venues to varying degrees, the capability to tailor the system set up based on a venues requirement will be an important factor (i.e. some facilities will only require an EPOS to run F&B and retail sales, where another may need to be able to facilitate F&B, Retail, Ticketing and Membership capability etc.). The ability to manage facility admissions, retail sales, daily stock management and provide comprehensive real time back-office management data are just some of the key functionalities expected of the system.", "items": [ { "id": "1", "additionalClassifications": [ { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "55300000", "description": "Restaurant and food-serving services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "55900000", "description": "Retail trade services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "55500000", "description": "Canteen and catering services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "55400000", "description": "Beverage-serving services" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "48110000", "description": "Point of sale (POS) software package" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "48480000", "description": "Sales, marketing and business intelligence software package" }, { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "79211120", "description": "Sales and purchases recording services" } ], "deliveryAddresses": [ { "region": "UK", "country": "GB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, { "region": "UKL14", "country": "GB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" } ], "relatedLot": "1" } ], "value": { "amountGross": 90000, "amount": 75000, "currency": "GBP" }, "mainProcurementCategory": "services", "aboveThreshold": false, "lots": [ { "id": "1", "suitability": { "sme": true, "vcse": true }, "contractPeriod": { "startDate": "2026-06-01T00:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2029-05-31T23:59:59+01:00", "maxExtentDate": "2031-05-31T23:59:59+01:00" }, "hasRenewal": true, "status": "active", "value": { "amountGross": 90000, "amount": 75000, "currency": "GBP" }, "awardCriteria": { "criteria": [ { "type": "quality", "name": "Quality criteria", "description": "Quality criteria", "numbers": [ { "number": 40, "weight": "percentageExact" } ] }, { "type": "cost", "name": "Cost criteria", "description": "Cost criteria", "numbers": [ { "number": 60, "weight": "percentageExact" } ] } ] }, "selectionCriteria": { "criteria": [ { "description": "To assist you in locating these opportunities on the BRAVO E Procurement System the project code is: project_62676 As this is an Open procedure , Tenderers must ensure that all ITT questions are fully responded to.
