Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rutland County Council is conducting a soft market testing exercise for an Educational Psychology Service, located in the East Midlands, England. The process is currently in the planning stage, with the engagement end date set for 18th August 2021 at 12:00 noon. This is not an invitation to tender, but rather a request for feedback on the proposed model for service delivery. Interested parties can access the market engagement notice published on 21st July 2021 and submit their responses via the Council's e-tendering system by the stipulated deadline.

This soft market testing presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in guidance and counselling services, particularly those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Companies with expertise in educational psychology, counselling services, and similar fields would be well-positioned to contribute their insights and potentially shape the future procurement of these services in Rutland. Engaging with the local authority during this phase could open doors for future contracts and collaborations in the educational sector.
