## Summary

The Ministry of Justice is conducting a procurement process for "Education, Training and Employment Services for Wales," classified under probation services. This contract is awarded through a selective method as part of the Probation Services Dynamic Framework (PSDF), which allows the authority to procure essential rehabilitative services. The contract period commences on 26th June 2021 and extends until 31st March 2024, with a total contract value of £3,347,213. The tender process concluded on 5th October 2020, prior to the award date of 16th December 2020.

## 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.
