## Summary

Devon County Council has completed a procurement process for the project titled "CP1975-20 Heart of the South West Career Hub - Virtual Careers Fair". This initiative falls under the category of web page editing software development services and aims to connect schools in the South West of England with employers for student career development. The tender was conducted through an open procurement method, with the tender period concluding on 23 October 2020, and the contract period commencing on 9 November 2020, extending until 8 November 2021. The total contract value was £27,000, with a minimum value set at £20,000.

This procurement presents a favourable opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in providing virtual engagement solutions, educational technology, or career development services. Businesses that can offer innovative and engaging platforms to facilitate virtual career fairs would be particularly well-positioned to meet the needs of Devon County Council and support the aspirations of students in the Heart of the South West region.

## Notice

This project is to provide schools across the Heart of the South West (HotSW) the opportunity for students to experience meaningful virtual encounters by connecting with employers, businesses and training providers, including Further Education and Higher Education. This will fuel imaginations, develop skills and raise aspirations in order to help them make informed decisions about future transitions and long-term career goals.
