Description

National Galleries Scotland (NGS) intend to procure a sole Service Provider for the Provision of Catering Services at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery (SNPG). The Concession Contract includes the provision of daytime catering services to the public as well as private function/event catering. Therefore, NGS require the Service Provider to market and sell the sites as a function venue to corporate and private clients, offering their services for events both during the day and evening. A further key requirement for the successful delivery of services will be on-site Contract Management as Caterers will be expected to work alongside the NGS brand, remaining consistent with NGS’ brand values. The café is a valuable asset to NGS and should be considered as a destination in its own right. The reputation in regards to quality, value and customer service enhances the overall gallery attraction and visitor experience and therefore, Service Providers should be considerate of the NGS’ Audience and Exhibition Programmes. Overview of Requirements: - Expertise in the planning, deployment and co-ordination of catering management; - Expertise in Supply Chain Management and Quality Assurance Methodology for food and drink products; - The provision of star accredited catering services; - Reputable customer service; - Quality branding and marketing materials; - Commitment to fairly and ethically traded goods, preferably from locally sourced suppliers; and - An understanding of security requirements and procedures.

The agreement will be non-exclusive i.e. NGS reserves the right, in certain circumstances, to procure out with the Contract Agreement, as and when required. In the event of unsatisfactory performance by the successful Service Provider and the termination of the contract by either party, NGS reserves the right to negotiate the continuance of the services with the second and third placed Service Providers. Lot 1: The procurement will be conducted through the use of the Restricted procedure. The SPD (Scotland) will be used as a downsizing tool in this procedure. It is NGS' intention to shortlist to a maximum of 5 Service Providers but NGS reserves the right to invite in excess of this number of Service Providers in the event of a tie. Economic Operators may be excluded from this competition if they are in any of the situations referred to in Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. The objective criteria for shortlisting candidates is detailed under section III of this Contract Notice.
