## Summary

The procurement process titled "Education, Training and Employment Services for the North West" is conducted by the Ministry of Justice in the United Kingdom. This initiative falls under the probation services category and is relevant to the North West region. The award stage of the procurement is complete, with the contract period commencing on 26 June 2021 and concluding on 31 March 2024. The contract value is approximately £4.42 million, with the procurement method being selective and executed through a call-off from the Probation Services Dynamic Framework, in accordance with the Light Touch Regime of PCR2015.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations, that specialise in delivering rehabilitative and resettlement services. Companies with expertise in education, training, and probation services should consider participating, as they can leverage this framework to provide vital services needed from Day 1 of delivery, thus facilitating growth in a critical public service area.

## Notice

In June 2020 the Ministry of Justice established the Probation Services Dynamic Framework (PSDF) to allow the Authority and Participating Bodies to purchase services to deliver rehabilitative and resettlement interventions. The Dynamic Framework and subsequent Call-Off Competitions are conducted in line with the Light Touch Regime of PCR2015. The Authority has utilised the PSDF to procure a range of services to meet The Authority's requirements that must be live on Day 1 of delivery which is 26 June 2021. Only bidders that were qualified onto the PSDF within the appropriate financial thresholds, relevant regions and the appropriate service categories were invited to the Call-Off Competitions. All guidance on this is available within the PSDF Contract Notice and subsequent documentation.
