        "description": "Bikeability Child Cycle Training has been delivered in Cambridgeshire since 2007. The county is among the top 20 highest performing local authorities with around 6,000 pupils receiving the training per annum, representing approximately 80% of the eligible audience. Bikeability cycle training equips service users to choose cycling to travel more actively, more safely and more often, thus upholding the Council's following priorities: - Enable full, healthy lives for all (promoting active and independent living) - Ensure fairness and opportunity (through the best start for children and young people, and physical access to jobs) - Support a green and sustainable county The Bikeability Cycle Training Contract is being developed specifically to deliver the existing Bikeability grant award (2026 - 2029) and fulfil The Authority's grant recipient obligations, including the designated course level allocations. The Programme objective for training providers in 2026/2027 is: - Increase participation in, and achieve rider outcomes of, Level 2 Bikeability by the end of primary school (Year 6) to improve road safety, promoting responsible cycling behaviour, and benefitting health and wellbeing. To enable delivery of the overall objective, further sub-objectives have been outlined: - Prepare children for Level 2 through Level 1 and Learn to Ride - Encourage schools to take part in Bikeability Courses - Encourage participation in the Bikeability programme of under-represented groups Full details of the procurement procedure, the Contract, required Services, and the process for bidding for this opportunity are detailed within the associated tender documents. The Council is providing the total estimated value of the Contract in accordance with the PA23 requirements on valuing contracts and for transparency purposes.

The Council reserves the right to abandon the procurement and is not bound to award any contract arising from this Tender Notice. Bidders are solely responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in relation to the preparation and submission of their Tender response.",

Under the wider Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) agenda the Government has stated its intention to restructure remaining two-tier areas in England into single tier unitary authorities. This programme aims to streamline local government structures, improve accountability, and achieve efficiencies. As Cambridgeshire currently operates under a two-tier system, LGR is expected to affect the Council during the lifetime of this Contract. As the timing and scale of these changes are not yet confirmed, LGR may result in modifications to this Contract. Potential impacts include changes to the contracting authority through novation, variations in service volumes or values, and adjustments to the scope of Services required. Any changes will remain aligned to the existing nature of the Contract, although related additional Services may be required. A number of successor authorities may require access to the Services and the Contract will accommodate their entitlement to do so. Bidders should be aware of this forthcoming reform and be prepared to work collaboratively with the Council to support transition and ensure continuity of Services."
