Description
DSAT (Diocese of Salisbury Academy Trust) is a Church of England multi-academy trust based in the south west of England. 4 primary schools will be involved. This tender seeks a catering partner to deliver a safe, high-quality and inclusive meal service for four primary schools, recognising that the Trust operates a mixed delivery model where some sites cook fresh on site and others reheat/finish meals on site. Bidders are expected to demonstrate how they will provide a consistently positive pupil experience across both models—maintaining quality, nutrition, food safety and allergen controls—while working collaboratively with schools and the Trust, supporting wellbeing and sustainability, and contributing to the Trust’s aim to help all pupils and school communities to flourish. There is LGPS. Further information on the Client’s requirements can be found at Attachment 1a Client Data and Attachment 1b Specification. The Contract period will be for 3 years initially, with the option to extend for two further one-year periods at the discretion of the Client. The estimated contract value for this contract over the full potential 5 year period is £750,000 (excluding VAT).
