## Summary

Bedfont Primary School is seeking a school catering service for its site in Bedfont, close to Heathrow Airport. The requirement covers catering for a school with 507 pupils and is classified as school catering services. Bedfont Primary School is the buyer, with RM&C Consultants Ltd managing the tender process for the school. The work will be delivered at the school in Bedfont, Hounslow. This is a service opportunity for caterers able to plan and deliver food provision in a primary-school setting, working with the school’s requirements and pupil population. The contract is presented as a single catering requirement rather than separate service lots, so suppliers would be expected to offer the full service rather than bid for a defined part of it.

The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through a selective competitive flexible procedure. Suppliers were asked to complete a first-stage SQ; responses are scored against the advertised template, with up to five companies meeting the pass mark invited to interview and potentially to the ITT stage. The deadline for expressions of interest, enquiries and Part 2 SQ responses was 4 November 2026 at 1pm. The award decision period was scheduled to end on 28 January 2027. The single lot has a published value of £1 gross, in GBP. The contract period is 1 May 2027 to 30 April 2030, with renewal possible after three years subject to satisfactory performance, up to 30 April 2032. Quality is assessed through the SQ Part 2 document and scoring example.

The opportunity suits school catering businesses, including SMEs, that can take responsibility for a complete primary-school catering service rather than a limited lot. Suppliers need to engage with a staged competitive process: complete the SQ Part 2 response, follow the scoring example, and provide supporting documents and policies as attachments. Businesses that meet the SQ pass mark may be considered for interview, although the procedure limits progression to up to five companies where enough suitable applicants qualify. The requirement is therefore suited to suppliers with the organisation, staffing and operational capacity to serve a school roll of 507 pupils from May 2027. Strong performance matters commercially because the buyer may renew the service after the initial three-year period.
