T26-125CRO Informal Catering for Mayoral Events
Derry City and Strabane District Council, a local government organisation in Northern Ireland, is seeking a designated caterer to provide informal catering for events hosted through the Office of the Mayor. The service will support the Mayor’s meetings, receptions and other events, with requirements varying according to the event type, guest numbers and catering needed. Most services will be delivered at the Guildhall in Derry or Harbour House in Derry, within the UKN0A region, although the details identify the wider delivery area as the United Kingdom. The estimated contract value is £36,000, but the tender information does not state a contract duration or fixed service timeframe. The key qualification requirement is that the appointed supplier must be able to provide the requested catering services as a designated caterer, meeting variable event-specific quantities and requirements; no particular certification is specified in the available details.
