UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process by Carmarthenshire County Council, located in Carmarthen, was aimed at enhancing secondary education through the "Collaborative Curriculum for Learner Success" initiative. This procurement falls under the category of secondary education services with the contractual work expected between 19th January 2026 and 31st March 2026, and a potential extension until 31st July 2026. The process involved a limited procurement method below the threshold, focusing on competition among selected providers. Although the process is complete and not an open tender, it provided opportunities for educational professionals specialising in curriculum development, particularly within the Welsh region (UKL14). The legal basis for the procurement adheres to UKPGA 2023/54 regulations.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses in the education sector, particularly those specialising in bespoke curriculum development for secondary education. The primary beneficiary of the contract, School Compass Ltd, exemplifies the type of SME that can leverage such opportunities for growth by delivering innovative educational solutions aimed at improving student engagement and attendance. Companies that can provide robust solutions in enhancing educational experiences and workforce-related curriculum might find similar future opportunities beneficial, especially if they are adept at navigating public sector procurement processes under devolved Welsh regulations.
