Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Education is seeking suppliers for the procurement of "Rekenreks for the Mastering Number Programme" as part of a contracted initiative to provide educational equipment to schools in England. The procurement process has reached the award stage, with a total contract value of £498,465. The initial supply will involve 181,260 rekenreks distributed across 3,000 schools participating in the programme. This contract, awarded to ESPO, commenced on 4 June 2021 and is set to conclude by 31 December 2021. The procurement was executed using a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement, and relevant documentation was published on 5 July 2021.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in the supply of educational materials, especially those specialising in innovative learning tools. Companies that can manufacture or distribute educational equipment and those that are experienced in working with schools and educational contracts will be particularly well-suited to consider bidding for future orders anticipated through this framework. Moreover, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) may find this an advantageous area to explore, especially given the scale of the initial order and the ongoing nature of the programme.
