UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Rutland County Council procured services to deliver the PEEP – Learning Together Programme, focused on the home learning environment for families with children under five. The service is intended to operate through family hubs and outreach venues across Rutland, including engagement with target families in rural and isolated communities. The provider is expected to deliver a high-quality, consistent offer, work in partnership with the council and early years and family hub services, and maintain fidelity to the PEEP model. The procurement is for pre-school education services, with delivery in Rutland. It covers one completed service requirement for the council rather than separate goods, works or supply elements.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. Rutland County Council used a below-threshold direct award without competition. The contract was signed on 1 July 2026 and runs from 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027, with a maximum possible end date of 30 June 2029 because one-year-plus-one-year extensions are available. The contract value is £29,232 excluding VAT, or £35,078.40 including VAT. The contract is active and was awarded to PRE-SCHOOL LEARNING ALLIANCE T/A EARLY YEARS ALLIANCE. Evaluation details are not set out beyond the direct-award route. The requirement was organised as one completed lot.

This procurement indicates demand from Rutland County Council for a specialist early-years provider able to deliver the PEEP – Learning Together Programme consistently across family hubs and community outreach settings. A credible future competitor would need practical experience working with families with children under five, including families who are rural or isolated, and the ability to engage target groups through more than one venue or service setting. It would also need to work effectively with a local authority and early years or family hub partners, while delivering the programme in line with the PEEP model rather than adapting it beyond recognition. The selected supplier is a large voluntary, community and social enterprise, showing that this type of organisation can meet the council’s requirement.
