Additional information

Following evaluation of the tenders received and subsequent clarification of the proposed supply arrangements, Falmouth Exeter Plus identified differing interpretations of the required operational model, particularly in relation to products identified as hot baked products and the extent of any preparation or baking to be undertaken by the Authority.
The Authority has therefore decided to discontinue the procurement and undertake a further review of its operational requirements and future service model before commencing any subsequent procurement exercise.
No contract will be awarded under this procurement.
