## Summary

Leicestershire County Council is conducting a procurement process for "Crèche Sessions at Leicestershire County Council Children and Family Wellbeing Centres" to establish a standing list of crèche providers across the East Midlands. The procurement is currently in the Award stage, with a contract value of £179,000. The tender period concluded on 17 April 2019, and the contract period commenced on 1 July 2019, running until 30 June 2020. This procurement follows an Open Procedure method, allowing eligible suppliers to compete for the opportunity.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in childcare services. Businesses that can provide flexible and diverse crèche solutions, particularly for vulnerable families or those engaging in adult learning, will be well-suited to compete. The establishment of a standing list across the seven geographical areas of Leicestershire District Councils allows for multiple service engagements, thereby enhancing the potential for business growth in the childcare sector.

## Notice

Leicestershire County Council (the Council) would like to set up a standing list of creche providers across the county to enable parents to attend sessions/training and have their children looked after on the Council's own premises, which will be called Children and Family Wellbeing Centres from April 2019. Creche services are required for a wide variety of service users and range from more vulnerable families (say who are homeless or fleeing Domestic Abuse) to parents who are engaging on Adult Learning courses. The standing list will be split into 7 Lots based on the geographical area of each of the 7 Leicestershire District Councils.
