Confidence: highSodexo gains access to an eight-year UK government FM framework
Sodexo was approved onto the UK Government Commercial Agency RM6378 Facilities Management & Security Services framework, an eight-year vehicle covering catering alongside wider FM services and representing £120 billion of public procurement funding.
Why it matters
This framework appointment illustrates that catering can be included within multi-service public-sector procurement routes.
Recommended action
Validate demand and data readiness before building: interview or prototype-test a standard site-level trading, service, nutrition, waste and mobilisation reporting pack with relevant caterers or FM partners, and assess whether it can be deployed without bespoke analyst support.
