Summary of the contracting process

Devon County Council has completed the procurement process for the "CP1362-16 Tresillian Early Years Centre," a 0-5 childcare nursery operating in Kingsbridge, South West England. The procurement aimed to transfer the operation of this facility, which currently serves 66 children and has a waiting list, to an independent provider through a long lease agreement. The procurement was published on 15th June 2018, with the tender period concluding on 17th July 2018. The successful bidder, The Exwick Ark Ltd, was awarded the contract on 21st December 2018, with a total value of £2.3 million and a contract duration extending until 31st December 2028. This procurement process was conducted under the "Other" method below EU threshold values, meaning it was not governed by the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.

This opportunity represents significant potential for business growth, particularly for private, voluntary, and independent childcare providers looking to enter or expand within the early years education sector. Businesses with experience in childcare services, especially those that are Ofsted registered, would be well-suited to compete in similar tenders. The new provider will benefit from government funding allocated through the Local Authority for eligible children, thereby enhancing the service's financial viability while meeting the local community's needs for continuous childcare provision.
