Description
This process is a re-tender of the current Outsourced Catering Services Framework let by CPC and expiring in September 2026. CPC intends to put in place an Open Framework for the appointment of outsourced facilities suppliers who specialise in catering services, across education and also the wider public sector. The purpose of this Framework is to give CPC members a compliant route to market. The collective spending power of Members utilising CPC frameworks is harnessed to drive down costs, which often allows for savings delivery which our membership otherwise would be unable to achieve individually. The Open framework will consist of 3 or 4 frameworks within the series, dependant on extensions. It is intended for the series to conclude on 04/10/2034. CPC will be using the MultiQuote e-Tendering platform to carry out this tender.
