Summary of the contracting process

The Royal Borough of Greenwich commissioned an attendance, attainment and electronic personal education plan (ePEP) service for looked-after children. The provider monitors children’s school attendance, progress and attainment, supplies related reporting and supports educational outcomes in line with the borough’s Children and Young People’s Plan. The work combines education data services with software and IT support, including systems for recording attendance. The service is for Greenwich’s looked-after children, with delivery in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, London.

The procurement is complete and Welfare Call (LAC) Ltd was selected for the single lot. The award was made on 3 June 2026, at £160,232 excluding VAT (£192,278.40 including VAT). The award period runs from 26 October 2026 to 31 August 2029, with an option to extend by up to 12 months in total, to 31 August 2030. The original estimated value was £160,000 excluding VAT (£192,000 including VAT). The council used an open competition below the threshold; two bids reached the final stage, both from SMEs. Evaluation combined quality and price: quality covered attendance data, attainment data, reporting, ePEP, experience and social value; price covered implementation, onboarding, migration and training, pupil data extraction, and ePEP services for statutory school-age and post-16 pupils.

For suppliers tracking future requirements from Greenwich, this award shows demand for a joined-up service combining attendance and attainment monitoring, reporting, and ePEP software for looked-after children. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate reliable handling and extraction of statutory school-age and post-16 pupil data, alongside implementation, onboarding, data migration and system training. The evaluation gave substantial weight to the ePEP and attendance data offer, as well as attainment data, reporting, relevant experience and social value; price was assessed across distinct service and implementation elements. The successful supplier is an SME, and both final-stage bidders were SMEs, indicating that this requirement was contestable by smaller providers. Suppliers with education-sector experience and the capacity to deliver a complete data and software service would be well placed to compete when this buyer next procures the same requirement.
