3. A transparent service provision in terms of both task delivery and cost;
4. The provision of continuity of service, processes, systems and procedures across all properties;
5. A consistent service delivery across the Authorities diverse property portfolios;
6. A partnership approach with a catering service provider that delivers on service, and understands the explicit and implicit needs and values of the Authorities;
7. A collaborative approach to catering service delivery which interfaces with the Authorities other FM service providers;
8. A service provider and supply chain members that can effectively manage multi-site stakeholder expectations; and

The Authorities sought a Service Provider that is able to deliver the above objectives within a healthcare environment, embracing and working in partnership with both Trusts and their clients, so future aspirations can be exceeded.
Furthermore, the Authorities sought a Service Provider that appreciates that expectations and priorities of the catering service are unique to each type of property, and thus shall adopt an approach that is properly specific, proactive and responsive.
