Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, initiated by Due North Limited, concerns the provision of Educational Psychologists to supply reports for the statutory Education, Health and Care Needs Assessment process. The service, classified under psychiatrist or psychologist services with CPV code 85121270, is to be carried out in England, United Kingdom. This procurement has been completed through a selective method, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement, reflecting the status as complete. The tender process concluded on 17th January 2025, with the project contract running from 20th January 2025 to 19th January 2026. The awarded contract was valued at £7,000,000 and announced on 3rd March 2025, with a notable subsequent award notice update in August 2025.

This tender offers substantial business growth opportunities, particularly for businesses specialising in psychological services and with experience in educational assessment reporting. Given the procurement's selective nature and focus on framework agreements, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) capable of meeting stringent quality standards would be well-suited to compete. The involvement of large suppliers like REED Specialist Recruitment LTD T/A Consultancy+ indicates the potential scale and reach for credible service providers within this sector, enhancing market presence and potentially establishing long-term partnerships with public sector entities such as Oxfordshire County Council.
