## Summary

The Department for International Development (DFID) is conducting a selective procurement process for the DFID 8010 Sindh Education Non-State Actors programme (SENSA) focused on providing technical assistance and management for up to 51,145 disadvantaged children in Sindh province. The contract, valued at £709,731, is part of a negotiated procedure and is currently in the award stage, having reached completion. The contract period is set to commence on 1st August 2017 and will conclude on 31st July 2018. The procurement process includes delivery addresses across British Overseas Territories, the Channel Islands, Europe, the Isle of Man, and the United Kingdom.

This contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses engaged in educational services, particularly non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that specialise in innovative solutions for education delivery. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) will be well-suited to compete, given the programme's emphasis on collaborative approaches to education in underprivileged areas. Businesses in education management, logistics, or those with experience in partnership models may find strategic advantages in this opportunity.

## Notice

1. The Sindh Education Non-State Actors (SENSA) programme will fund a full cycle of primary education for up to 51,145 (54% girls, 46% boys) of the poorest children in Sindh province. The Education Fund for Sindh (EFS), a pilot programme which DFID Pakistan supported since February 2012, came to an end on 31 March 2016. EFS funded four national and international non-government organisations ((I)NGOs) as alternative non-state providers of education services, known as 'intermediaries'. Of all the strands of the EFS programme (the voucher system, the intermediary programme and the public private partnership strand) the 'intermediary' strand was the most successful in terms of both delivery and in mitigating risk.
