Tender description
Some of the equipment currently in use is ageing, inefficient, and increasingly prone to breakdowns. Equipment failures can compromise the continuity of service and negatively impact customer satisfaction, school operations, and the reputation of the School Meals Service. Replacing the equipment enables catering teams to focus on food preparation and customer service rather than managing equipment issues. ## Contract award
