Abstract

Bristol City Council (BCC) – Trading with Schools (TwS) invite you to a virtual Supplier Event to be held via Microsoft Teams scheduled for Tuesday 4th February 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.

Re: Contract for School Catering

We are in the process of procuring a new school catering framework contract for 40+ Bristol Schools.

We are hosting a supplier event, and this will enable potential suppliers to find out more about the proposed contract such as the length, scope, specification and what the Schools require from providers to fulfil this contract.

For those potential suppliers who are unfamiliar with the Councils’ commissioning process, we will guide you through the process and explain why we need to do the activities that we do. Providers who have been through the process before, this is an excellent opportunity to refresh your knowledge!

If you are interested in attending, please email: twsprocurement@bristol.gov.uk

Please provide us with the name, position, email address and company name of the person(s) who would like to attend and a link to the event will be emailed nearer the time.

We look forward to seeing you at the event.
