Public Sector & Private Sector Contract Bidding Potential
Find more food & drink contract bids, public sector links to the private sector, supply chain dynamics, partnerships, subcontracting, CCS & DPS frameworks, and public sector funding.
Suppliers in the food and drink industry can benefit from both public procurement and private sector contracts. Key areas include supply chain dynamics, partnerships, public funding, subcontracting, CCS & DPS frameworks, and compliance with procurement regulations. These opportunities enhance business prospects, drive innovation, and support sustainability.
Supply Chain Dynamics
The industry’s supply chain includes farming, processing, packaging, distribution, and retail. Effective management ensures quality, safety, and timely delivery. Organisations seek public and private contracts with suppliers of raw materials, processors, and logistics providers.
Example: A beverage manufacturer contracts a fruit farm for produce, detailing quality standards, delivery schedules, and pricing.
Public & Private Sector Contracts
Businesses, Local Authority, Public Services, Educational Institutions, Charitable Organisations, Trusts, Public Bodies…
Public sector and local authority contract notices are published to ensure transparency and fair competition. Organisations like educational institutions, public bodies, charitable organisations and companies in the private sector win contracts funded by the government offering more access to opportunities. Public funding supports government initiatives like health and social care, education, accessibility, transport, sustainability, technology and innovation with suppliers adhering to procurement rules.
Example:
A bakery receiving a grant publishes a contract for solar panel installation.
CCS Frameworks & DPS Frameworks
CCS (Crown Commercial Service) frameworks and DPS (Dynamic Purchasing System) frameworks provide structured procurement routes for public sector contracts. Suppliers can join these frameworks to access long-term contract opportunities and a wide range of public sector clients.
Example: A food supplier joins a CCS framework to provide catering services to public sector schools, ensuring streamlined procurement and consistent business. Similarly, a local farmer secures long-term contracts through a DPS framework to supply dairy products to public institutions, fostering a sustainable supply chain.
Partnerships and Collaborations
Collaborations drive innovation and competitiveness. Suppliers can engage in joint ventures, partnerships with public sector organisations, and strategic alliances.
Example: A packaging supplier partners with a food processing company for eco-friendly solutions.
Subcontracting
Specialised suppliers handle tasks like ingredient processing, packaging, and distribution. Private companies with large public contracts may subcontract parts of the work.
Example: A cocoa processing business secures a subcontract with a confectionery company.
Public Procurement and Compliance
Suppliers must comply with procurement regulations, ensuring transparency and quality.
Example: A catering service provider bidding for a public sector school contract demonstrates compliance with nutritional standards and competitive pricing.
Bidding & Tendering Processes in Procurement
- SQ (Selection Questionnaires): Initial assessments in the Food & Drink sector often revolve around licensing, regulatory compliance, past engagements, and perhaps, ethical sourcing practices.
- PQQ (Pre-Qualification Questionnaires): Organisations are expected to detail their operational capacities, supply chain robustness, quality assurance mechanisms, and any certifications (like organic, halal, or kosher).
- RFI and RFQ: Requests for Information and Requests for Quotes
- RFP (Request for Proposals): An entity may present a requirement – maybe sourcing a particular ingredient sustainably or launching a new beverage line. Suppliers detail their approach, potential partnerships, pricing, and project timelines.
- ITT (Invitation to Tender): Here, suppliers provide a comprehensive plan, encompassing everything from sourcing to production or distribution methodologies, quality assurance steps, risk mitigation strategies, and proposed outcomes.

This is very similar to the exercise completed by Ashford Borough Council approximately 12 months ago. What is the issue: Since July 2020, certain planning applications (those providing overnight accommodation, including new housing) located within the Stour catchment and/or which discharge foul water into the catchment, need to achieve nutrient neutrality through mitigation. Natural England have published some principles that the mitigation must meet. https://www.ashford.gov.uk/media/ifyljove/nn-principles-external-final.pdf Natural England has published and outlined a methodology on this issue and the regulations that any mitigation needs to achieve. https://www.ashford.gov.uk/media/d2cldooy/natural-england-nutrient-neutral-generic-methodology-issue-1.pdf In response to this issue, Stour Environmental Credits Limited is looking to innovate and identify ways to solve this problem and enable house building within the catchment. What do we need to achieve: We are looking for proposals that will deliver mitigation for both Phosphorus and Nitrogen that can then be applied to mitigate the impacts of development identified through the 'Appropriate Assessment' process as regulated by the Habitats Regulations. Mitigation achieved can be measured and priced per Kg. We would be interested to know your proposal in terms of; • Evidence that the idea complies with the Habitats Regulations • Examples of use elsewhere • Price per Kg of mitigation Interested respondents are required to submit their proposal by 10:00 Wednesday 5th February 2025 via the Kent Business Portal https://www.kentbusinessportal.org.uk/.

07/01/2025 08:59 AM | Heritage Works for Creative Businesses (NP 234) | The aim of this follow-on research is to offer guidance and encouragement to investors interested in taking on unused or under-used historic buildings with a view to converting them for use by creative businesses, which form one of the key growth sectors in the UK economy and which are therefore likely to be expanding in the next few years. The objectives can be expressed in terms of three questions: 1. How and to what extent have historic buildings added value to creative businesses? This would involve analysis of creative uses such as the Custard Factory in Digbeth, the Hat Factory in Luton, Hotwalls in Portsmouth and the Biscuit Factory in Ouseburn, highlighting both the contribution made to the success of these places by their historic character and the value derived from it. Substantive case studies are not required here but will instead be commissioned separately. 2. Where in England do the favourable circumstances combine to suggest that creative businesses could be attracted to locate there when growing? In a similar way as done for the north of England by GC Insight, this section would look at where the non-heritage vital ingredients for creative businesses overlap with heritage opportunity areas such that, with appropriate planning policies and financing models, these localities would make good nurseries for growing creative businesses. It would also highlight opportunities for heritage attractions to serve not as premises for creative businesses but as anchor sites - as footfall generators or showcases/outlets for the products of neighbouring creative businesses. 3. In favourable localities, what help might commercial developers, building preservation trusts and community development trusts need to bring to the market sustainable, inspiring and affordable historic premises attractive to creative businesses looking to expand? This section would adapt the recent 'Heritage Works for Housing' guidance to take into account the particular demands of creative businesses, such as flexible layouts, playful design, gigabit digital connectivity, communal areas, individual maker spaces and 'third spaces'. | Historic England | 23/01/2025 |

The whole site measures 7.2ha in total and currently consists of the Visitor Centre, toilets, car parking, woodland and open space interspersed with historic remains of the former gunpowder works, leats (small water canals), lake and picnic areas. https://oaregunpowderworks.co.uk/ The site is a scheduled ancient monument, part Site of Special Scientific Interest and well known for both its heritage and biodiversity value. It has consistently been awarded both Green Flag and Green Heritage award status and there are several external groups involved in providing volunteer maintenance and visitor activities. We have been welcoming visitors for nearly 20 years following creation of the park with a lottery grant and continue to maintain the site and facilities guided by our management plan. We believe the site has the potential to be a bigger tourist and local resident destination with an all year round offering.

The internal part of the building currently mainly houses heritage and environmental displays, with education/volunteer meeting space.Bidders are advised to inspect the building and carefully consider the cost of reconfiguring the interior, providing catering equipment and any necessary works or for providing an alternative permanent or portable additional external catering unit, before submitting their EOI, especially considering the sites Scheduled status. It is anticipated that Planning Permission and Scheduled Ancient monument Consent will be required for significant changes or new additions.In addition to the key building, the Council is keen for the site to attract more visitors to the area, all year round, but in particular during the summer season. Innovative ideas are therefore sought on what additional offering could be created on the site.Cont. | Swale Borough Council | 24/01/2025 |
