Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process initiated by Warwickshire County Council involves the planning of a new framework for Specialist & Alternative Day Education. This initiative focuses on providing educational placements for children and young people with special educational needs or disabilities up to the age of 25, where mainstream or local authority education providers are unable to meet these needs. The procurement is currently at the planning stage, with the contract expected to run from 1st September 2027 to 30th August 2035. Classified under the services category, the project is located in Warwick, United Kingdom, and includes a future notice publication planned for 1st January 2027.

This tender offers a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in education and training services, particularly those experienced in delivering specialised educational programmes. Companies with a background in special education needs or those capable of forming framework agreements will find this tender beneficial for expanding service offerings and accessing sub-central government contracts. With a long-term contract period, businesses can expect stable growth and development opportunities by aligning with Warwickshire County Council's initiative to support young individuals with specific educational requirements.
