In brief

It is a framework worth up to £3,793,366 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 2 years, up to 4 years with extensions, starting 15 May 2027.

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 4 bids per contract for this buyer (from 10 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £3,793,366 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

The Corporate Officer of the House of Lords and Corporate Officer of the House of Commons (the Authority), acting jointly, requires suitable suppliers to provide a wide range of ambient, frozen and chilled grocery products, for use across the Catering Services of both Houses of Parliament. All produce is for resale in Parliament’s catering venues.
