INTRODUCTION Food satisfies people s most basic needs. Food nourishes people. Food brings people and cultures together. Food has a very strong social connotation. Food makes people live moments together. It is more than ever expression of a lifestyle. Local and regional products, seasonal awareness, soul food, culinary curiosity, flavours from all across the world food and gastronomy have become a trend, like fashion. Chefs from all over the world have become recognised superstars, like singers or actors. Society has become very conscious about what they eat and eating has become much more than the mere ingestion of aliments. In order to meet these tendencies, not only restaurants and the gastronomic sector need to adapt to the changing requirements of the market. Also the events and hospitality industry has to be inventive to offer up-to-date products and services. Building on the success of the previous UEFA club and national team competitions hospitality programmes, and with the objective of being the best in class and a benchmark within the sphere of world class sports events hospitality, UEFA is constantly aiming to live up to these changing conditions of the market and to bring its hospitality services to a different level. In order to achieve such a goal, UEFA is seeking to collaborate with the best partners, because outstanding and extraordinary services can only be delivered by outstanding and extraordinary people with a strong ambition to strive for excellence. 6

7 3. OBJECTIVE OF THE TENDER Catering services form an integral part of the UEFA hospitality guest experience. While a guest might not have the expertise to judge the quality of a lighting concept or the correct use of the colour scheme within the official event branding concept, everyone does have an opinion on food and drinks. For the UEFA EURO 2020 more than ever as well as for the upcoming Club Finals, it is UEFA s objective that the gastronomic experience should be a unique feature and a real story telling experience, it should have an entertaining component, should represent the flavours of the corresponding countries and hosting venues, providing an insight into the local culture and its culinary delights; it should have a surprising element, should be modern, innovative and colourful and it should be in line with the overall guest experience, addressing all their senses. In order to set the trend for the future of sports hospitality and to ensure the delivery of outstanding and innovative one-of-a-kind hospitality programmes, UEFA is seeking to engage in an exclusive partnership with a catering specialist company developing a close working relationship throughout the three-year duration of the cooperation. The strategic partnership comprises UEFA s top competitions and tournaments, namely the upcoming commercial cycle of the Club Finals ( ) as well as UEFA EURO 2020 and includes Catering Production Services as well as Catering Consultancy Services. The precise scope of this partnership covers the following Services and Modules: The purpose of this Invitation to Tender (ITT) is to invite interested Applicants to submit their conceptual and financial Proposal for the services further specified and detailed hereafter and to enable UEFA to appoint the most suitable Applicant to assist in the delivery of outstanding catering services for the above mentioned Competitions. 7

8 Applicants are invited to bid for all OR only part of the Modules described in this document as follows: OR Module A and Module B OR Module A1 and Module B UEFA thanks you for your interest in this Tender and looks forward to receiving your Proposal. 4.

9 5. MODULE A.1 CATERING PRODUCTION SERVICES FOR THE CHAMPIONS VILLAGE OF THE UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINALS INTRODUCTION The UEFA Champions League Final has undoubtedly become one of the most iconic and the most popular annual single day sports event in the world. Every year, the biggest and most prestigious stadia in Europe host Europe s best teams to compete in a breath-taking encounter to crown the winner of the UEFA Champions League Final, the pinnacle of the European Football Club Competition season. The UEFA Champions League Final 2019 marks the first final of the three-year commercial cycle. With the aim of further taking up the success of the past UEFA Champions League Finals and with the vision of providing one-of-a-kind mind-blowing hospitality experiences to its guests, UEFA is seeking to appoint a partner with whom to bring the catering services in the Champions Village to a whole new level by creating an adequate platform to showcase the UEFA brand and for Commercial Partners to showcase their brands and to invite their most relevant business clients, employees, etc. Not only is the event itself enjoying great popularity on all levels, also the popularity of the UEFA hospitality programmes has been constantly increasing. Year after year, UEFA continues to provide first-class hospitality services and a memorable experience to its various target groups: VIP hospitality guests Commercial Partners hospitality guests hosted in the Champions Village Finalists hospitality guests Corporate hospitality guests The hospitality services provided to these target groups include catering services, entertainment and other benefits from three hours before the match until 90 minutes or two hours (depending on the hospitality programme) after the final whistle contributing to an extraordinary match day guest experience. While the VIP hospitality guests and the guests of the two competing teams (the Finalists hospitality guests), as well as at least part of the corporate hospitality guests can mostly be accommodated in facilities inside the stadia, this is not the case for the Champions Village guests. Due to the elevated number of guests and the therefore required capacity, the Champions Village is hosted outside the stadia, in an external temporary hospitality facility. The Champions Village is typically located in direct vicinity to the stadia and has been welcoming more than guests per UEFA Champions League Final in the past editions. 9

10 The Commercial Partners represent a very key target group for UEFA, not only in terms of number of guests, but especially due to the prestige and value of the brands involved. The Commercial Partners that have so far signed up for the UEFA Champions League commercial cycle (status end of February 2018) are the following: Adidas Gazprom Heineken Mastercard Nissan PepsiCo PlayStation Sony Santander 1 TBC Based on the above and the related Sponsorship agreements the Champions Village for the upcoming cycle should be able to accommodate around guests. The following pages provide: References of the UEFA Champions League Final 2016 in Milan (Champions Village layouts) to facilitate the elaboration of a Proposal; A list of assumptions to be taken into account as basis for calculation; A detailed overview of the scope of services required pursuant to this Module A; Information of the UEFA Champions League Final hosting and bidding stadia 5.2. REFERENCES OF UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL 2016 IN MILAN The below illustrated Champions Village layouts shall be utilised as reference and basis for the provision of a Proposal in terms of: General set-up of the Champions Village Tent size per Commercial Partner Guest space available (m 2 / guest) Set-up, position, dimensions of support facilities (kitchen, toilets, storage) Lounge set-up, furniture and bar and buffet element distribution 10

16 6. MODULE A.2 - CATERING PRODUCTION SERVICES FOR WEMBLEY STADIUM DURING UEFA EURO INTRODUCTION UEFA EURO 2020 is unique in its concept, taking place in 12 different countries simultaneously which brings a number of challenges but also a great amount of opportunities. The catering operations must be a true reflection of this one-of-a-kind event. Not only is Wembley Stadium the second largest stadium in Europe currently (see above); it is also the venue which will host the highest number of games for UEFA EURO 2020 (in total seven matches). Therefore, in order to ensure a flawless delivery throughout, UEFA is seeking to appoint a trusted and expert catering company to take over operations for its various hospitality target groups. Analogous to the Club Finals, UEFA aims to provide first-class hospitality services and a memorable experience to its various target groups: VIP hospitality guests Commercial Partners hospitality guests Corporate hospitality guests The hospitality services provided to these target groups include catering services, entertainment and other benefits from three hours before the match until 90 minutes after the final whistle contributing to an extraordinary match day guest experience OVERVIEW OF ESTIMATED AVERAGE NUMBER OF GUESTS PER TARGET GROUP PER MATCH WEMBLEY STADIUM SPLIT OF TARGET GROUPS PER GAME - WEMBLEY STADIUM Total N of Total N of N of guests Total N of Total N of Total N of guests per N of guests guests per per Group guests Group guests Semi guests for Round of 16 per Semi Final target group Stage match Stage (x3) Final (x2) Final (x1) match (x1) (all matches) VIP guests '600 1'000 3'600 Commercial Partners guests 850 2' '650 3'300 3'460 10'020 Corporate guests - Skyboxes 1'918 5'754 1'918 1'918 3'836 1'918 13'426 Corporate guests - Lounges 1'900 5'700 1'900 1'900 3'800 4'000 15'400 Total number of guests 4'918 14'754 4'778 6'268 12'536 10'378 42'446 16

17 As opposed to Module A.1, Applicants shall provide Services to all Hospitality target groups within this Module A.2. Applicants shall thereby consider the following: Service and operating hours on Match Day in the different areas are from 3h prior to Kick Off until 90mins after the Final Whistle (Service will be provided at half time depending on the location of the Hospitality Lounges); Available Hospitality areas will only partly be used for the Group Stage matches and the Round of 16. Usage will increase for the Semi Finals and the maximum inventory will be used for the Final only; For Group Stage matches and the Round of 16, Commercial Partners guests will be accommodated in one common area which will be identical in its set-up for all four games; During Semi-Finals and Final some Commercial Partners may wish to be accommodated in separate individual lounges inside the stadium; For the Corporate Hospitality Skybox programme three different Catering concepts should be proposed as per the below overview detailing the level of service per target group; For the Corporate Hospitality Lounges two different Catering concepts should be proposed as per the below overview detailing the level of service per target group; 6.3. ASSUMPTIONS Applicants shall take into account the following assumptions: The Services required only concern target groups which will be accommodated in existing lounges inside the stadium (see above overview); Existing furniture will be used as much as possible in all lounges; A third-party supplier will be appointed for the conceptual design, look and feel and entertainment concept within the different target group lounges.

MODULE A.2 SERVICES REQUIRED FROM THE SUCCESSFUL APPLICANT As an optional, additional Module to A.1, UEFA is tendering the rights for the delivery of the overall Catering Production Services for the above mentioned target groups at all matches in Wembley Stadium during UEFA EURO Due to the availability and quality of the existing infrastructure in Wembley Stadium any proposed Catering concept shall be based on using to the extent possible the existing facilities and equipment. Changes to the prevailing set-up shall therefore be limited and shall be clearly outlined in the Applicant s proposal in case deemed necessary. 18

19 The scope and the level of service for this Module A.2 are the same as the same as the Services detailed within Module A.1 Section 5.4., except that certain services will be provided directly by UEFA and as such are out of scope of this Module A.2.

Other services to be provided as part of the catering services (for details see 5.4.b): Due to the existing facilities in Wembley Stadium the provision of kitchen and cooling equipment as well as operating equipment (such as buffet ware, cutlery, etc.) can be disregarded.

Furniture and other production related elements (for details see 5.4.c): The furniture and set-up concept shall be based to the extent possible on the existing equipment.

21 7. MODULE B.1 CATERING OPERATIONS CONSULTANCY SERVICES FOR UEFA EURO INTRODUCTION Every four years, the UEFA European Football Championships final tournament assembles the strongest European national teams and many of the best European footballers to compete for the Henri Delaunay trophy, the ultimate in European football. It brings together nations to celebrate their shared passion for the beautiful game. UEFA EURO 2020 the EURO for Europe is a very special and exceptional format of the UEFA EURO tournament and at the same time the 60 th anniversary of the event. More than ever, the specific character of the competition will lie in its bringing together of European excellence and with it, the distinctive football and cultural specificities of each nation. Staging the tournament in 12 different venues across Europe promises to become a memorable football festival throughout the continent and it will give some countries and cities the opportunity to be part of an event that they may otherwise not be able to host. The unique concept offers a wide range of beautiful ways to create something extraordinary and unprecedented. 12 different countries, spread all over Europe, from North to South and from East to West, different cultures, different flavours. In order to live up to the geographic dimension of the tournament as well as to the diversity of the individual venues, UEFA Hospitality Production has come up with the following overall motto related to the hospitality services offered: Think global, act local. Thinking global thereby refers to the actual geographic dimension of the project, taking into account the full scope of the tournament and all 12 venues. Acting local makes reference to working with local suppliers, partners and products, ensuring that way the accessibility to the best local partners and products at the best price. Moreover, and especially in views of the actual guest experience, acting local stands for tasting and sensing the local culture, adding a local, distinctive touch and flavour in each of the venues. 21

22 The appointed host cities and stadia for the UEFA EURO 2020 are: 7.2. UEFA EURO 2020 HOSPITALITY SERVICES STARTING POINT Due to the logistical complexity and the potential discrepancies among the 12 different venues, a specific set-up and structured strategy at all levels is essential to ensure a successful delivery of Hospitality Services for this exciting endeavour, the UEFA EURO As stated above, and with the objective of cost-efficiency, competitiveness and in order to get the best local products at the best price, UEFA is aiming at working as much as possible with current local suppliers, given that their expertise and production capacities are in line with the required level of service for such a major event. With the aim of being able to best judge the ability of the existing organisations and their infrastructure, current way of working, etc. UEFA is currently undertaking a first visit and assessment of all selected UEFA EURO 2020 stadia (apart from the Ferenc Puskás Stadia, Budapest, which is currently still under construction). The assessment and evaluation of the stadia is thereby based on face-to-face meetings with the corresponding counterparts for catering and hospitality services and on a thorough inspection of all relevant facilities. The key findings for every venue are compiled in a post-site visit report MODULE B.1 ROLE OF THE CATERING OPERATIONS CONSULTANCY SUPPLIER Over the past years UEFA s direct involvement in the management and running of operations has steadily increased. It is UEFA s objective to further build on the experience and knowledge gained, maximising synergies with all UEFA internal operations-related functions that provide similar services as the Services delivered within the scope of hospitality production (e.g. power, cleaning, guest management, security, etc.). As such, for the UEFA EURO 2020 UEFA will intent to manage directly and through its own Hospitality Production Team the delivery of the different hospitality programmes in each Stadium. It is however not 22

23 UEFA s intention to internalise catering management, but to develop a close working relationship with an expert supplier in this field. UEFA is therefore seeking to appoint a catering specialist company with a high level of expertise to support the UEFA Hospitality Production Team in an advisory and consulting capacity. The scope of involvement of the Successful Applicant may vary depending on various criteria, which are specified hereafter, and is therefore graded in different levels (Level 1 3): 7.4. MODULE B.1 SERVICES REQUIRED FROM THE SUCCESSFUL APPLICANT The Services to be delivered by the Successful Applicant within the scope of this Module B.1 will be specified hereafter for each of the three levels. The scope and estimated workload are indicative. Level 1: Provision of support in the assessment process Scope: Estimated workload: Service fees: up to 12 Stadia 4 man-days per Stadium (2 days, 2 persons) Services charged based on an agreed rate card per daily rate Evaluation phase (2 man-days) Procedure Tasks On-site visit during operations (together with a UEFA Hospitality Production representative), observation of operations, analysis of processes, face-to-face interviews with the relevant parties in charge (F&B Manager, General Manager, head chefs, etc.) Evaluation of the catering company in situ (previous experience, reference projects, staff, resources, etc.); Evaluation of the existing installations and facilities; and Thorough assessment of the kitchen and catering equipment and infrastructure (technical setup, power requirements, etc.). Review phase (2 man-days) Procedure Concept presentation by the caterer and assessment of the gastronomic offer during the official UEFA Working Visits together with the UEFA Hospitality Production Team Tasks Review of the catering concept; Review of the ratio value for money; and Review of the quality level of services. 23

24 Based on this assessment, UEFA together with the Successful Applicant will categorise the stadia in three different levels. Level 1 stadia According to the outcome of Level 1 (see above) the existing stadium catering company is capable of delivering catering services within the UEFA EURO 2020 hospitality programmes according to the predefined level of service.

Level 2 stadia The existing stadium catering company is capable and strongly motivated, however they require further support in order to acquire the expertise to deliver catering services within the UEFA EURO 2020 hospitality programmes according to the pre-defined level of service. In such case and subject to UEFA s agreement and approval, the involvement of the Successful Applicant would be extended to Level 2: Provision of coaching services (further specified hereafter). Once selected caterers have achieved the desired level of expertise and are comfortable with the required scope of services, the Successful Applicant may be requested (analogue to the procedure for Level 1 stadia) to support UEFA in the approval and validation of catering concepts, operational and staff planning and layout plans. Level 3 stadia Should the existing stadium catering company, even after in-depth coaching and training, not have acquired the expertise to deliver catering services to the various target groups within the UEFA EURO 2020 hospitality programmes according to the pre-defined level of service, the involvement of the Successful Applicant may be extended to Level 3. In such case or in case the assessed Stadium does not have an existing in-house catering supplier, UEFA may ask the Successful Applicant to manage directly or through third party suppliers the catering operations for all matches played at the venue. The management of these catering operations will be subject to terms to be agreed. Please refer to Section 7.6 for details on the existing stadium catering suppliers. 24

25 Level 2: Provision of coaching services Estimated scope: Estimated workload: Service fees: Approximately 8 Stadia 4 Stadia requiring light tutorial support, 4 Stadia requiring on-site coaching support Services charged according to the level of coaching required and based on an agreed rate card per hourly / daily rate and including travel expenses Coaching phase Procedure Tasks Provision of coaching and support material (e.g. handbooks), provision of remote coaching services (video conferences, conference calls) and on-site coaching services (workshops, e.g.) and monitoring of progress Preparation of support material as per individual training needs and sharing of best practice procedures; Organisation of workshops and training sessions; Availability as point of contact for expert advice when needed (video conferences, conference calls); and Regular review and monitoring to assess the progress made.
