ATU VEAT Notice CCAM Campus Catering Services

Description

The objective of this Voluntary Ex Ante Transparency (VEAT) notice is to inform the market of Atlantic Technological University's Galway City CCAM Campus intention to enter into a contract with P.P.A. TREAT CAFÉ LIMITED in accordance with Article 32.2(c) of Directive 2014/24/EU (i.e. reasons of extreme urgency brought about by events unforeseeable by the contracting authority). This is also a Contract Award Notice for the Service. The modification is to extend the current contract period up-to 15 months whilst a review of future catering provision requirements and strategy is developed across the Atlantic Technological University is undertaken. Please refer to attached documentation for full justification. Lot 1: ATU believe a 12-15-month extension period may allow for the sector to recover/stabilise, therefore allowing ATU to secure stronger market competition for re-tender, also allowing a review of future catering provision requirements and strategy to be developed across the Atlantic Technological University to be undertaken. It is ATU’s intention to commence this process, and to have a new contract in place Q3/Q4 2023. Please refer to the attached document for further details and justification.
