UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

BMAT Education procured a managed supply-staff service covering both teachers and support staff, delivered through a central platform. The requirement is for personnel placement and the supply of temporary staff, including education workers needed to meet routine and urgent staffing requirements. Services cover England, including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West. BMAT Education is the buying organisation and the procurement involved one completed lot. The arrangement is relevant to education staffing agencies, temporary workforce providers and recruitment platforms able to source and coordinate qualified teaching and support personnel across a wide geographical area.

This procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. BMAT Education used a selective procedure to make an award under a framework, without a competitive call-off. The contract was awarded to Supporting Education Group Limited on 21 July 2026 and signed on 4 August 2026. The awarded contract value is £3.2 million gross. The contract runs from 7 September 2026 to 7 September 2029, with renewal options extending the maximum period to 7 September 2031; renewals may be taken in one-year intervals. The award was above the relevant threshold. Evaluation was conducted through the framework award route, and the procurement was not divided into multiple lots.

This award demonstrates substantial, multi-year demand from BMAT Education for a coordinated education staffing service rather than isolated placements. A credible future competitor would need a reliable central platform, broad reach across England and the capacity to supply both teaching and support staff. The stated performance requirements point to robust compliance controls: recruitment must follow the framework guidelines and remain compliant for both staff categories. Suppliers would also need operational resilience, responsive account management and the ability to fulfil emergency supply requests as well as planned requirements. The successful supplier profile indicates that scale, workforce availability and dependable fulfilment across many locations are important alongside recruitment expertise.
