Competitive Tendering
Tendering a catering service is typically more complex than that of other facility services, because people, products and sales are all in the mix. This often makes comparing like-for-like bids very challenging and time consuming.
Clients typically look to tender for a wide variety of reasons, ranging from; first time outsource, poor operational and or financial performance, company policy to tender prior to contract expiry, need for investment, poor employee engagement, lack of financial transparency, forthcoming office move or refurbishment, and many more.
