## Summary

The procurement process for the "Student Finance Tour 2017" has been completed, conducted by the Department for Education. This initiative aimed at delivering a series of educational events within schools, sixth forms, and colleges across England, catering specifically to students in years 12 and 13, alongside their parents or carers. The procurement involved a direct method, classified under education and training services, with a total contract value of £466,000. The tender period ended on 18 September 2017, leading into a contract period that commenced on 19 September 2017 and concluded on 31 March 2018. The contact point for further communication was Adam Dunajko, whose email is adam.dunajko@education.gov.uk.

This past procurement process presents valuable opportunities for businesses focused on educational services and event management, particularly those that specialise in engaging with students and parents in an informative capacity. Companies such as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), which can provide similar educational outreach programmes or events, would be well-positioned to compete for future tenders of this nature. Leveraging specialist knowledge in student finance and higher education can enhance their competitive edge in forthcoming bids.
