Description

Bournemouth Borough Council ('The Council') is looking for a supplier for the supply and delivery of coffee and hot drink machines and products to the Council's trading outlets.

This Prior Information Notice (PIN) has been published to provide market awareness of the opportunity. It is anticipated that the tender documents will be issued in November 2017. Suppliers can express an interest in the opportunity through the Council's eTendering website; www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk

Suppliers that express an interest through the Councils eTendering website will be automatically invited to the opportunity when the tender documents are published in November 2017.

The supplier will be required to supply and deliver a quality range of competitively priced coffee and hot drink products to Council catering outlets as well as the machines to produce these drinks. The supplier should ensure that each machine to be supplied can meet the high volume and turnover of hot drinks required during peak periods. Each machine supplied must be able to meet the daily output volumes.

The Council reserves the right to ask the supplier to supply further units or trading outlets. The Council reserves the right to close sites as well as move sites to new locations.

Bournemouth Borough Council has also named the Borough of Poole on this contract. The Borough of Poole will be able to access the supply through this contract.

The forecast contract value for this opportunity is £600,000 (£120,00 per annum). Bournemouth Borough Council does not guarantee any volume of product required during the length of the contract. The volume of supply is dependent on the number of operating units and demand. The demand is strongly led by the season, weather, school holidays as well as events such as the Bournemouth Air Festival.

Prior to the tender being issued, the Council is inviting suppliers who may be interested in supplying this contract to visit some of the Council's trading outlets to gain an understanding of the Council's operations. The Council is not able to show all sites but can show sites at the Council's Seafront locations, Parks locations and Town Hall. Please see details below for contact information

To view the Seafront locations, please contact Andrew Wood (Andrew.wood@bournemouth.gov.uk). To view the parks locations, please contact Darren Roser (Darren.roser@bournemouth.gov.uk). To view the Town Hall office location, please contact Nigel Sleath (Nigel.sleath@bournemouth.gov.uk).

Please ensure that you contact before Friday 13 October 2017 to arrange a site visit.

Please note that the Council does not intend to allow site visits once the Invitation to Tender has been issued in November 2017. However, many of the trading outlets are publicly accessible and therefore can be viewed from the counter side if required.
