What the client faced
A catering company wanted to bid for a public sector school and corporate catering contract but had limited bid writing experience and needed support presenting their food quality and local sourcing credentials effectively against a price-weighted evaluation model.
How we supported the client
We developed a tailored tender response covering food quality, sourcing, allergen management, staffing and mobilisation. HCB prepared Social Value responses focused on local employment and apprenticeships, built a compliant pricing structure and managed all clarification questions through to submission.
The result
The submission achieved strong quality and Social Value scores. The contract award decision is currently pending.
