School catering services

Tender description

The successful supplier/s will be required to provide catering services at 37 primary schools — see the tender documentation for further information. The scope will be for the provision of all catering within the schools, which currently includes breakfast club, morning break, lunch, limited hospitality and free issue requirements. The tender will be managed on a group basis, however each school will be required to have their individual operational budget and contract and may wish to appoint the Supplier they would like for their particular school or MAT. As the contract will not therefore necessarily be awarded on a group basis, Suppliers will have the option to show additional financial benefits on a separate upload if one or more schools were to be awarded to one Supplier. The contract price will be on a guaranteed basis for at least three years. With regard to the labour establishments across the Cluster, there are a number of staff that are currently in the Local Government Pension Scheme, and staff that can join is they so wish. One type of contract is included within the ITT where all staff will transfer to the successful Supplier/s; therefore, the successful Supplier/s will have to apply for Admitted Body Status and pay all setup associated costs. An actuary report will be provided as part of the TUPE information, but it is not guaranteed that the successful Supplier/s will not need to obtain another actuary report as part of the ABS process ~ the cost of any additional actuary report/s will need to be covered by the successful Supplier/s, as stated above. After the ten day standstill period, Suppliers MUST contact Calvin Matthews via email (cmatthews@cornwall.gov.uk) so that the ABS agreement can proceed. Please ensure that the pension contribution rates and information from the actuary reports are used when in the submission of labour costs. Please note, the successful Supplier/s will pay a proportion of the consultancy fee on award of each of this contract, which will be to the value of £750.00 per school. Additional schools might join this tender and you will be notified if this is the case. The contract/s will commence on 1 September 2019 for a period of three years, with a possible extension of two years by mutual consent and on the same terms and conditions as the original contract/s. Please note 12 schools will be visited over three days on 20, 21 and 22 February 2019; therefore, four personnel per day will be required to undertake the site visits. The schools visited will be all of the in-house schools and a selection of other large, medium and small schools. You will not be able to visit any other schools or revisit the schools visited. A list of these schools will be issued at the later stage. Suppliers are to arrive at the relevant school’s reception 15 minutes prior to mid-morning break. Suppliers will leave site after mid-morning break and return 10 minutes prior to lunch service. Each Suppliers’ site visit attendees will need to be notified to Ruth Lile in respect of all dates by 21 January 2019.
