Catering Contracts Framework
Reference Number : OIC/PROC/0805
Orkney Islands Council has a requirement for the supply and delivery of catering products to a number of authority establishments throughout Orkney for a period of 4 years with contracts to be awarded via a Framework Agreement to be established with contracts to be awarded following further competition for 8 lots:
Main Site : Orkney Islands
Orkney Islands Council and NHS Orkney have a requirement for the supply and delivery of fresh milk to a number of OIC and NHS Orkney establishments throughout Mainland Orkney, including the linked isles of Burray and South Ronaldsay and the inner isles (Shappinsay, Rousay and Hoy).
As stated in the Appendix A to the Contract Notice for the Catering Contracts Framework, bidders are required to be enrolled in the relevant professional or trade registers of the Country in which they are established. For the UK — Register of Companies.
As stated in the ESPD and Appendix A To The Contract Notice for the Catering Contracts Framework.
The Council reserves the right to cancel the procurement at any time and not award a Contract. The expenditure, work or effort undertaken by bidders prior to the award of Contract is accordingly a matter solely for the commercial judgement of bidders.
Late tenders will not be considered by the Council and all questions to be submitted via the Questions and Answers section of this contract advertisement on PCS.
An economic operator that suffers, or risks suffering damage or loss attributable to a breach of duty under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session.
Tenderers should complete the ESPD (Scotland) referring to this Contract Notice and the Appendix A To The Contract Notice For The Catering Contracts Framework — Reference OIC/PROC/0731. Tenderers are directed to the ESPD supplier guide at the following link.
https://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/userguides/PCS_ESPD_Supplier_guide.pdf
The Authority reserves the right to appoint more than one supplier to each lot if it is considered that by doing so this would provide the most beneficial outcome for the Authority and NHS Orkney.

The Contracting Authority does not intend to include a sub-contract clause as part of community benefits (as per Section 25 of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014) in this contract for the following reason:
The Contract Value is equal to or greater than 4 000 000 GBP over the 4 years of the framework including both the Authority and NHS Orkney — the value is broken down into 8 lots. It is anticipated that the majority of tenderers will be SME's, therefore to sub-contract further to SMEs would appear unlikely.
Community benefits are included in this requirement. For more information see: http://www.publiccontractsscotland.gov.uk/info/InfoCentre.aspx?ID=2361
A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows:
Orkney Islands Council has a requirement for Community Benefits to be included within the tender. A summary of the anticipated community benefits are detailed below:
a) Vocational training;
b) Work with schools and colleges to offer work experience placements;
c) Up-skill the existing workforce;
d) Supported employment opportunities (where appropriate).
