## Summary

New College Lanarkshire is buying individually pre-packed, shelf-stable bakery products and biscuits for serving in its college refectories. The requirement covers supply and delivery to the college’s campuses in Motherwell, Coatbridge and Cumbernauld. This is a goods contract for a supplier, or suppliers, able to provide packaged bakery and biscuit products suitable for regular catering and refectory use. The buyer is the education organisation New College Lanarkshire, based at its Motherwell campus. The procurement is classified under CPV 15812100, covering bread products, fresh pastry goods and cakes. Delivery is required across the three named campus locations, so suppliers should be able to manage distribution to multiple college sites rather than a single delivery point. The opportunity is relevant to bakery manufacturers, wholesalers, food distributors and specialist catering suppliers with suitable packaged product ranges.

The procurement has reached tender: New College Lanarkshire invited offers through an open procedure, with electronic submission. The tender deadline was 21 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC, when bids were also scheduled to be opened. The estimated contract value is £54,000 including the single lot. The initial contract period is 720 days, with an option to extend the agreement by two further 12-month periods, subject to satisfactory performance and continuing requirements. Bids must remain valid until 1 February 2027. Variants are not allowed, and submissions must be in English. Evaluation includes price and compliance with the stated selection requirements. Tenderers must provide the last two years’ audited accounts, or accepted alternatives, and evidence of mandatory insurance. The buyer requires two relevant supply-contract examples from the previous three years.

This opportunity suits suppliers with established distribution arrangements for individually packaged, shelf-stable bakery and biscuit products, and the operational capacity to deliver reliably to three college campuses. Businesses should be able to demonstrate two comparable supply contracts delivered within the previous three years, matching or exceeding the requirement in scope, complexity and value. Financial resilience is important: bidders need to provide two years of accounts or an accepted alternative demonstrating their position. Suppliers must hold, or commit to obtaining, employers’ liability insurance of £5 million and product and public liability insurance of £5 million, with supporting evidence. They also need supply-chain management and tracking systems that support a resilient supply chain and prompt payment. Evidence of at least 95% of supply-chain invoices paid on time, or a director-signed improvement plan, is required.
