UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Twyford C of E Academies Trust is initiating a tender for the creation of an agency staffing panel aimed at delivering staffing solutions across multiple schools under its management. Located in Acton, United Kingdom, this active procurement process falls under the services category, specifically targeting the supply services of personnel, including temporary staff. The procurement follows an open procedure with the tender submission deadline set for 31st July 2026, and the enquiry period ending on 20th July 2026. The contract is expected to commence on 1st September 2026, with potential extensions, and will run until 31st August 2029, with a maximum potential extension until 31st August 2031.

This tender offers a valuable opportunity for staffing agencies, particularly those adept at providing ad-hoc and planned staffing solutions, to expand their portfolio by partnering with a reputable educational trust. The procurement is well-suited for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that can deliver high-quality services, as the award criteria are heavily weighted towards quality (60%) alongside price (40%). This opens avenues for agencies with a robust track record in quality service provision to secure a long-term contract with significant financial implications, totalling up to £3,960,000 gross.
