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.

Woodhouse College ~ Catering Tender

The successful Supplier will be required to provide catering services at Woodhouse College The successful Supplier will be required to provide catering services for Woodhouse College. 'The mission of Woodhouse College is to be an inspirational and nurturing community that is committed to excellence and equips high-achieving, ambitious students with the skills to thrive on their preferred university course and in the wider world of work.' Woodhouse College is a popular and oversubscribed sixth form college in Barnet teaching A level courses to around 1500 students aged 16 –18 years, who join us from over 180 different schools across North London. The college employs approximately 150 teaching and support staff. Our students are high-achieving and hard-working. They have done well at GCSE and aim to do likewise at A level. Almost all go on to university. The college acts as a bridge from school to university, giving students a chance to grow in confidence and to develop independent learning skills.’ From 1st January 2021, following academisation, Woodhouse College became part of Frontier Learning Trust which also operates the small but growing specialist Imperial College Maths School on the same site (whose students currently use the College catering facilities which makes a total student population of 1620 from September 2025.) Catering for staff and pupils is currently from a single central service point on campus with adequate seating availability (unless it is raining!). The catering service also provides hospitality and events on an ad hoc basis. Current F&B sales are just under £300k per annum with possibilities to extend sales with additional service points The College expects the successful Supplier to meet the needs of their students and staff. 16–19-year-old students are responsive to “fast grab and go” food, prepared to order food and to branded foods. The College management team want the College to be an exciting and interesting place for their students, and believe an innovative food supplier will be able to deliver a provision which feels mature, current and above all have a different look and feel to the secondary school experience.
