Summary of the contracting process

Kent County Council is planning a procurement process titled "CN260422 - External Tuition - Reprocurement," which aims to establish a framework of providers offering external tuition services for children and young people across various regions in the United Kingdom, including UKC, UKD, UKE, UKF, UKG, UKH, UKI, UKJ, and UKK. This planned procurement falls under the services industry category, notably focusing on primary, secondary, and higher education services. The procurement is currently at the planning stage with key preparations being made and future notices expected to be published by 1st September 2027. The planned contractual period is set to commence on 1st February 2028 and conclude on 1st February 2031. With an estimated value of £11,520,000 gross (£9,600,000 net), this initiative aims to secure a robust support system for educational services via a framework agreement.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in education services to expand their influence and operations within the educational sector, particularly those capable of delivering comprehensive tuition services to varied educational levels. Companies that are already engaged in similar service provisions, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), are well-suited to leverage this procurement opportunity to enhance their portfolio, increase market presence, and establish long-term partnerships with Kent County Council. The framework is designed to accommodate a diverse range of providers, thereby fostering competitive offerings that can meet the educational needs across multiple regions in the UK. Such involvement not only promises direct business growth but also contributes to the educational advancement of young individuals in the area.
