Ramgarhia Sabha, a Sikh charity organisation in Reading, contacted ESPO in January 2016 to assist them with a project involving a full design, supply and installation of a charitable community catering kitchen that they required due to an increase in demand for hosting regular events. The new kitchen needed to enable hot food for 250 people to be served on site on regular occasions.
On the current Commercial Catering Equipment framework (98) there is a wide selection of suppliers covering a variety of services and products. Due to the nature of the customer’s requirement, ESPO assisted the charity in running a further competition to achieve the best supply solution. This involved inviting all eligible suppliers who were able to offer kitchen design, supply and installation works (lots 1, 2 and 3), within the relevant geographical area. At the end of the tender process the customer received a sufficient number of bids and they were able to award the project to Whitco who offered good quality products and equipment at a discounted price.
Overall we are pleased to have had access to this framework which enabled us to achieve our overall objective. The advice and guidance offered by ESPO was valuable and helped us deliver our project on time and within our budget. Baldev Sian, President, RSR
