We are pleased to announce that the mandatory standstill period has passed without challenge and the new Outsourced Catering framework was launched on Monday 24 September 2018.
The framework will run for an initial period of 2 years with the option to extend for a further 2 x 1 year periods. This framework replaces the very successful Outsourced Catering framework that expired on 23 September 2018. The new framework offers a far wider range of suppliers and we are confident that the variety of suppliers should exceed member requirements. A maximum of 20 suppliers have been awarded a place on each lot to ensure an adequate response is received to each and every mini competition undertaken. Please see the Outsourced Catering framework page to see each lot’s coverage.
