## Summary

The East Midlands Housing Group has completed a public procurement process for a "Scheme Catering Services Framework," aimed at providing managed catering services at their extra care schemes. This process was conducted using an open procedure, with the procurement method details indicating a framework agreement with both further competition and direct award methods. The procurement is located in the East Midlands region, United Kingdom (UKF), and falls under the services category, specifically targeting canteen and catering services (CPV code 55500000). The tender was initially active, with the tender period closing on 27 October 2025. The awards were made on 29 October 2025, and the contractual agreements activated on 1 December 2025, running through to 30 November 2029, valued at £3,000,000 (gross).
