Summary of the contracting process

The Southend-on-Sea Borough Council is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Early Market Engagement for the delivery of Alternative Provision". This initiative is focused on the primary education services sector and aims to engage education providers to assess their capacity and interest in delivering alternative education solutions within the borough. Key dates include the engagement end date set for 14th February 2020, with the location situated in East of England, UK. This procurement process is structured as a tender initiation type and does not seek to change current providers for the services offered at the Victory Park Academy.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses involved in education services, particularly those specialising in alternative education pathways. Companies that provide assessments, tutoring, or specialised support services for at-risk students may find this initiative particularly relevant. As the council seeks to develop a comprehensive commissioning approach, there is potential for collaboration or contracting, facilitating growth for businesses that participate in the engagement process and contribute their insights on the current educational pathways.

Notice Title

Early Market Engagement for the delivery of Alternative Provision

Notice Description

Southend on See Borough Council is seeking to engage with Education Providers to gain an understanding of the capacity and appetite in the market to deliver Alternative Provision within the borough. This exercise is to inform the Council in its consideration of options for the future service model and provision of Alternative Education, in particular, the provision of the Interim Tuition Service, the Outreach for Inclusion Support Service and a Nurture and Assessment Centre. The Council is not seeking to change the current provider for the provision of alternative education pathways for those permanently excluded or at risk of exclusion at Victory Park Academy but is seeking your views on the current pathways commissioned through the Local Authority. The Council is looking to develop a commissioning approach to Alternative Provision and the prevention of exclusion in schools. We are therefore looking for views from a wide range of stakeholders. This is not a call for competition. As such any future procurement process will be compliant with the Public Contract Regulations (2015 (updated 2016)). This includes but is not limited to advertising and fair treatment of economic operators regardless of their involvement in this Market Engagement.
