Description

Anglia Ruskin University is seeking a catering partner to provide catering services for the Cafe at their Guild House campus in Peterborough, which is a dedicated health, education and social care campus.
As part of ARU’s future vision and strategy, it is expanding their partnering relationships.
Catering at Guild House is currently proved by PRC Ventures based at Peterborough College.  The facilities provide a small cafe on the top floor that is supported by an open kitchen.  Current turnover is approx GPB 21k per annum, and is a 12 month a year operation.  ARU pay a capped subsidy of GBP 1.5k per month to the incumbent to cover the cost of service.
The opportunity is for a fixed term two year contract from 1st July 2020 to 1st July 2022 and may be the start of a more progressive partnership with ARU.
Current opening hours are 08:30 to 16:00, but the University would consider 09:30 to 15:30 for a justifiable business case.   We are advised TUPE will not apply, but interested parties will be informed of this as the opportunity prevails.
A tender for this requirement will be released by 28 Feb 2020. The successful organisation will be required to commence services on 01.07.20. A tender meeting and site visit is being held on 05.03.20 at Guild House (PE2 9PW). Please see Additional Information for more details and register your interest via Panache Consultancy at email -  [email protected] by midday 03.03.20 if of interest.
ARU are looking specifically for:
1)	A bread based offer with a small selection of hot food items such as pastries, pies, soup, baked potatoes, etc.
2)	An attractive facility that is welcoming, offers choice with attentive customer service.
3)	Healthy choices that are attractive to the student base at Peterborough campus.
4)	A branded coffee offer.
5)	A value for money tariff.
6)	Hospitality and internal delivered services when requested.
7)	Reliability of service provision and cover in team absences.
8)	Client value for money through the subsidy.
9)	Contractor incentivised management fee to help generate success.
There is no need for capital investment, although Tenderers may be interested in supporting the services through additional equipment/concept supply.

The object of this tender is to ensure we grant licenses to good quality operators with at least the following criteria, Those applicants: 1. hold a basic food hygiene certificate 2. hold a valid Public Liability insurance 3. operate from a modern safe vehicle conforming to safe levels of CO2 Omissions 4. Are able to operate by electric as and when electric power supply is made available in parks 4. offer a good range of quality products at affordable prices 5. offer healthy eating alternatives 6. have past experience of similar trading and have local knowledge of the area 7. ideally be a Tower Hamlets resident This procurement is for potential providers to secure a place on this Framework. If successful in applying for a place on this framework, providers will be eligible to bid for any concession contract (ie for a fixed pitch within a park) that is tendered through it and which is within the scope of the services they are able to provide. A number of fixed pitches within the various parks located within the borough will be offered throughout the term of the framework. We are intending to grant a license for a term of 4 years, the longer term offered provides applicants security of income, which may enable them to invest in their business as well as an opportunity to upgrade their ice cream vans. There appears to be many illegal/ unlicensed operators trading in the vicinity of parks selling products of poor quality. By licensing operators based on the above criteria, we are ensuring residents and park users are not only getting value for money, but that they are buying products from properly insured operators that are registered with Environmental Health and hold basic food hygiene certificates We hold a database of over 30 operators that have in the past expressed an interest in trading in LBTH Parks. Most tend to enquire only for Victoria Park as it is the busiest park.
