Canteen and bar services

Summary

The tender concerns canteen and bar services for the Cork Industry Vocational Training Centre in Santa Maria de Lamas, Portugal. The service is expected to cover approximately 45 meals per day, or about 9,900 meals per year, for one year with the possibility of one further one-year renewal. The reference price is EUR 7.50 per complete meal; the first-year base value is EUR 74,250 excluding VAT. The notice states a total base value of EUR 152,995 excluding VAT, while the specifications state EUR 152,955, so this discrepancy should be checked in the official documents. The contractor must prepare and serve meals on the premises, operate the bar, maintain the required food quality and hygiene standards, and provide at least three staff members: two for the canteen, including a second-level cook, and one for the bar. Price is the only award criterion, based on the lowest unit price per meal. Bids are due by 21 September 2026 at 23:30 and must remain valid for at least 66 days.
