ACE uses agency staff at times of high demand for its services to keep them open and running, in order to facilitate the delivery of contracted business. There are recognised difficulties with sourcing the required volume, quality and standard of staff through currently available avenues and within the timeframes required, therefore the aim of this framework is to ensure ACE are in the best possible position to source staff for their estate.
This project is looking to establish a new framework agreement with suppliers who have the resource and capacity to work with the University to provide catering staffing resources as and when required.
