The successful supplier will also operate performance bars, providing an offer for Paisley Arts Centre's performance programme of theatre (including panto), comedy, and music. Currently, the daytime cafe is open 6 days per week. However, OneRen will be open to suggestions from the successful supplier in relation to cafe opening days and times, but a minimum of 4 days will be required to coincide with peak times. Performance bars will be expected to be available for every programmed performance. OneRen invites suppliers to attend an optional visit at Paisley Arts Centre to view the facilities and offers suppliers the opportunity to gain an understanding of the venue's size, layout, and set-up, as well as gaining an understanding of the types of programmed events that take place. Suppliers can book a viewing time, at their convenience, with OneRen's Catering Manager, Diana West [diana.west@renfrewshire.gov.uk]. Attendance at the venue will not form part of any evaluation process if your organisation decides to submit a bid for this opportunity once published. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Public Contracts Scotland | | Latest notice | https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV543071 | | Notice type | OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 7 Nov 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 15 Dec 2025 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | RENFREWSHIRE LEISURE | | Locality | PAISLEY | | Post town | Paisley | | Postcode | PA1 1LL | | Country | Scotland | | ITL 1 | TLM Scotland | | ITL 2 | TLM3 West Central Scotland | | ITL 3 | TLM33 Inverclyde, East Renfrewshire, and Renfrewshire | | Local authority | Renfrewshire | | Electoral ward | Paisley East and Central | | Westminster constituency | Paisley and Renfrewshire South | | Delivery location | TLM83 Inverclyde, East Renfrewshire, and Renfrewshire | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 55 - Hotel, restaurant and retail trade services ### Codes - 55410000 - Bar management services - 55520000 - Catering services ## Release History - 7 Nov 2025 at 00:00 - Planning - OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV543071 ## Documents - https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=NOV543071 Concession Contract for the Provision of Catering Services at Paisley Arts Centre - OneRen has a requirement to appoint an experienced, community-focused supplier to establish and grow a destination daytime cafe within the iconic, newly refurbished Paisley Arts Centre.
