This procurement activity intends to:

• Standardise the supply of fresh coffee beans or associated blends, supplementary beverages, and café consumables to ensure consistent product quality and service delivery.

Question:
Good afternoon, Procurement Team,

3. Alternative Offers: The Queensland Procurement Policy promotes an outcome focussed approach, seeking opportunities to innovate and improve value for money. Suppliers are encouraged to submit alternative and/or innovative Offers where they believe that the alternative will promote the Customer’s objectives.

Is there a material objection to identify :

• Leasing Cost of Equipment for the 5 year Term

• Separate Cost for Supply of Coffee and Consumables

which allows a choice in machinery selection for “fit for purpose” venue volume which we deem adds value for money for Metro North Hospital and Health Service.

Kind Regards

Good morning,

Please provide the offer as requested, together with any alternative and/or innovative offers, in Attachment 1, Part C - Product Pricing Response Table.

Kind regards
