Summary of the contracting process

Middlesbrough Council has entered into a procurement process titled "Alternative Provision Assessment Places," which falls under the health and social work services category (CPV: 85000000). The process is at the Award stage and involves a 12-month contract with an option to extend for an additional 12 months. This contract is aimed at providing short-term alternative education provision for children and young people at risk of exclusion. The services will be delivered in the UKC12 region, specifically in Middlesbrough, with key activities starting from 7th February 2025. The procurement method used in this process is limited, indicating that the contract was awarded without prior publication of a call for competition due to specific criteria met by the provider.

This tender creates substantial opportunities for businesses involved in education and social work services. Given the nature of the contract, companies experienced in providing alternative education solutions, particularly those tailored to at-risk youth, would find this tender particularly fitting. The existing contract holder, The Learning Legacy Trust, is a regional SME contractor well-versed in the required service delivery. Potential competitors with the capability to offer high-quality, flexible education provisions and who can demonstrate reliability and previous success in similar contracts may find lucrative growth opportunities through such procurement deals.
