description

The Houses of Parliament seeks to establish a framework agreement with 3 to 4 suppliers to provide daily deliveries of fresh and prepared fruits and vegetables for use in the catering and restaurant facilities across both Houses.

Our catering services meet the needs of a working Houses of Parliament and are used by a wide number of people, such as visitors, staff, journalists and police officers and not just members.

The nature of a framework agreement means that the estimated cost (in this case £2.5M) is usually higher because that amount could potentially be split between multiple suppliers. However any supplier successfully appointed to the framework will be subject to monthly quotations to ensure any orders are given to the lowest priced supplier.

Tenders are required to ensure fair and open competition in the source of supply, and so this process will enable suppliers, including SMEs, to compete fairly for the award of the contract. Both the House of Lords and House of Commons routinely review their prices, adjusting when necessary, to ensure value for money to the taxpayer.
