Southwark Council intends to undertake a procurement exercise to implement a catering services framework for nursery, primary and secondary schools within the London Borough of Southwark.
The aims of the framework include:
•Continued improvement of nutritional quality and consistency of school meals
across Southwark
•Tackling disadvantage and reducing inequalities
•Enhancing social value through job creation for local people, payment of London Living Wage (LLW) and supporting the local economy
•Realising the opportunities for meeting the Council’s social value, food security,
environmental sustainability and climate emergency agenda.
Within Southwark, there are currently 4 nursery schools, 74 primary schools (including
3 special schools) and 25 secondary schools (including 5 special schools). The value of the school meals market in Southwark is estimated at around £8.3m (primary) and £5.3m (secondary) annually. Currently, most primary school outsourced contracts are for a single school, rather than a group, each with different contract terms. Many secondary school contracts are either in house or as part of an academy grouped contract. Most contracts are currently two to three years in duration.
Please note that the DfE's Get help buying for schools service is assisting Southwark Council with the publishing of the associated contract notices and procurement documentation. As a result in the e-souring system Jaggaer https://education.app.jaggaer.com/web/login.html this project will show via DfE's published opportunities Project_9559.

Adults Home Care service provision will be split across three (3) groups with a total of fifteen (15) Lots:
1. Group A (Lots 1-5): Adults' Home Care - Primary Provider (Core services);
2. Group B (Lots 6-12): Adults' Home Care - Secondary Provider (Core services); and;
3. Group C (Lots 13-15): Adults' Home Care - Specialist services.
The Council is therefore seeking to award fifteen (15) cost and volume contracts to successful bidders as part of this Procurement and it is anticipated that the contracts will be fully operational by 2 November 2026 (this may be subject to change) and will continue for a period of four (4) years from that date with an option to extend, at the Council's discretion, for up to four (4) years (two (2) years plus two (2) years) unless terminated in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Contract.
Transfer of existing care packages are within the scope of this Procurement.
The Council is seeking to award a single Contract to the successful bidder as part of this Procurement and it is anticipated that the Contract will be fully operational by 2 November 2026 (this may be subject to change) and will continue for a period of four (4) years from that date with an option to extend, at the Council's discretion, for up to four (4) years (two (2) years plus two (2) years) unless terminated in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Contract. The estimated total contract value for this procurement is £13.6m.
Due to the short-term nature of Reablement and to support continuity for residents, it is expected that, at contract commencement, most existing packages will not transfer to the successful Supplier and will remain with the incumbent provider until the closure of the package. However, during mobilisation the Council will conduct a review of existing packages to determine whether any packages are appropriate for transfer. It is possible therefore that some existing packages could be transferred if the new provider is willing to accept them. Transfer of existing care packages are therefore potentially within the scope of this Procurement but the contract value expressed above are calculated based on current care packages.
Southwark Council is seeking suitably qualified and experienced providers to enter into a contract for the provision of a Carer Service in Southwark.

The Carer Service will be located in Southwark and will offer a range of services for unpaid carers living in the borough.
