Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Education has completed a procurement process titled "Framework Call-off- EARLY CAREER PAYMENTS - Claim process- Con_11606," which falls under the education and training services category. This selective procurement method involved a call-off from a framework agreement for payroll and payment services aimed at supporting teachers in claiming additional payments, including reimbursement of student loan repayments. The tender period concluded on 31 August 2021, while the contract commenced on 1 September 2021 and will run until 31 August 2022. The contract is valued at £14,200 and is applicable to delivery addresses across the British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth for businesses providing similar payroll and payment services, particularly those focused on education and training solutions.
