The contract being offered and will be guaranteed performance in nature. The tender project is seeking to appoint a Contractor whose initiative and innovation will be welcomed for the provision of all catering services within the Trust. The high-quality service levels proposed, should maintain excellent standards throughout, resulting in a new food service offer with consistent high standards of food operations across all Schools. Regular customer and parental engagement (using digital platforms and social media) will be required to ensure this is the case moving into the contract term These new standards of operation should meet the needs of the pupils moving forwards into this contract term. The current range of foods needs to be expanded along with the service provision. It is one of the objectives of this tender that the successful contractor will utilise a truly local supply chain and the farming” belt” in the North Somerset/BANES/Bristol area to source all fresh produce, namely being: Bakery Products Meat Fruit and Vegetables Dairy Products The contract at each school will operate on a guaranteed basis (return or subsidy) with all universal free school meals and free school meals charged to the client monthly at net food cost only. All hospitality is to be charged on a net food cost basis. The approximate cost of the contract currently per annum is £900,000.00 plus VAT The successful contractor will be expected to put forwards both innovation and their proposals for making this contract more environmentally sensitive and carbon neutral moving into this contract term both by way of contract delivery, and also within the successful contractor’s organisation, thus working to deliver the Lighthouse Schools Partnership’s environmental policies. Your approach to sustainability should mirror that of the Lighthouse Schools Partnership. The terms and conditions of employment and recognition offered to the catering operatives should be both progressive and forward thinking ensuring that the staffing establishment is complete at all times and staff turnover is kept to a minimum The Multi Academy Trust is expected to grow in the number of schools becoming part of the trust during this contract period, and the provision of catering services within these schools when they have joined the MAT will fall under the scope of this contract. The successful contractor will be expected to provide this service within these additional schools using the same costing model, ratios etc. that they applied to their successful tender submission for the Lighthouse Schools Partnership at the point of tender submission. The duration of contract for these schools will not be increased and they will join the contract for the remaining contract period that exists at the point of entry into the MAT.
