Tender description
As part of the Council’s services, we offer an event facility for both external customers (weddings etc.) and internal customers (supplier events, community events etc.) at the Town Hall. These events have the option of having catering included on a fixed price per head basis. As the catering facility is an essential part of the event space offering, we are looking to undertake a procurement exercise to secure a new contract for the provision of catering and bar facilities for internal and external catering events within all the council’s premises (primarily Town Hall) used as a hire venue. There will also be the occasional requirement to cater for other large events such as the Lord Mayor may require from time to time. The new procurement exercise will be split into the following Lots: • Lot 1 – Catering Service for Internal and External Events • Lot 2 – Catering Service for Business Meetings and Training • Lot 3 – Full Bar Service of Alcoholic and Soft Drinks

About the buyer
Sheffield City Council is a local authority for the city of Sheffield, and runs its own procurement function for contracts across the organisation. Tender opportunities are advertised on YORtender, the council's e-tendering portal shared with local authorities across the Yorkshire and Humber region. Contracts above threshold also appear on Find a Tender, with lower-value opportunities listed on Contracts Finder. Framework agreements let the council call off from appointed suppliers without a fresh advertisement. An evaluation panel scores each bid, and the highest-scoring supplier wins the contract. Contract details are then published in the Contract Register within YORtender.
UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).
Over the past 5 years, most of Sheffield City Council's contract awards have been in business services, construction work and IT services.
