The successful Supplier will be required to provide cleaning services for South West Essex Community Education Trust.
This procurement is being conducted under a concurrent competitive flexible procedure in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023. Suppliers must meet the minimum conditions of participation in the PSQ in order to progress to having their tenders scored.
Sales value is currently £275,000 per annum (see ITT data pack)
SWECET formed in 2015 when a group of like-minded schools came together to form the South West Essex Community Education Trust. They were united in the belief that every young person needs and deserves an education that will maximise their future life chances and that this could be better achieved together.
The founding schools and those schools that have joined since are all united by shared values and beliefs, but this is where the similarities end. We encourage each other to remain unique places of learning. We believe our schools’ differences are an asset, allowing for creative thinking and sharing of best practice, raising standards across the Trust and providing exciting opportunities for our students.
This opportunity has come to market after the recent withdrawal of the Local Authority Catering service, therefore the expectation will be that TUPW will apply and LGPS membership will be a feature of most employee’s contract terms. The schools have consistent and dedicated teams performing the services currently.
In scope for this project are the three primary schools in the Trust;
Deneholm Primary School
Stifford Clays Primary School
Chadwell St Mary Primary School
Current catering sales revenue is around £275k per annum
The Client would like to see innovative delivery of staple primary menu items, enhanced where appropriate with innovation and interest. There is a need to maximise sales and uptake to contribute against overheads – this can be achieved by offering a dynamic and bespoke food offering across all of the schools.
