Summary of the contracting process

Derby City Council has completed a procurement process for a contract titled "W627 - Specialised SEND Education and Support" in the services category. The project focuses on specialised education and support for SEND learners and was delivered in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom. The procurement process was conducted without competition, as it was below the threshold, and directly awarded. The contract started on 1st April 2025 and concluded on 24th July 2025, with the award being officially signed on the start date. The process pertains to a specialised subset of public authority procurement under the sub-central government classification, with the main responsibility for overseeing the procurement lying with Derby City Council.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in education and training services, particularly those with expertise in supporting Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) learners. While the specific procurement process is complete, companies looking to compete in similar tenders should focus on offering tailored education services that align with the needs of local government bodies like Derby City Council. Large-scale educational service providers, such as the winning supplier Teaching Personnel, are particularly well-suited to compete, especially those capable of delivering flexible, high-quality educational support within specified timeframes and regions.
