## Summary

The Department for Education is seeking a provider for the "SAFE (Support, Attend, Fulfil, Exceed) Taskforce - RM6187 Management Consultancy (MCF3)" project. This procurement falls under the category of education and training services and has a total contract value of £300,000. The contract period is from 11th April 2022 to 31st March 2025, following the tender stage which concluded on 21st March 2022. The selected supplier, RedQuadrant, will deliver training and support focusing on enhancing intervention commissioning capabilities to combat serious violence and improve educational engagement across various locations, including the United Kingdom and other territories. The procurement method employed was selective, sourcing through a framework agreement.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in educational consultancy and training services. Businesses well-versed in evidence-based decision-making and outcomes-driven strategies are particularly suited to compete, as the role requires bespoke training programmes and ongoing support tailored to the specific needs of the SAFE taskforces. With the emphasis on community engagement and local context, businesses with a strong track record in delivering similar training and consultancy services to education-focused organisations will find this an advantageous opportunity for growth.

## Notice

We require the provider to work with DfE to design a programme of support and training for the SAFE taskforces on commissioning of interventions and services to tackle serious violence and improve engagement in education, including: * Training for the leads to improve their commissioning capability * Courses on how to use evidence to support decision making * Training on outcomes-based commissioning * Local coaching for commissioning leads * Training on how to use the voice of the community and ensure interventions are suitable for their context * Training on how to oversee and monitor commissioned services * Any other types of training and support that the provider would recommend and DfE agrees is suitable. The provider will then provide the training, support and advice to SAFE taskforces as required, from 11th April 2022 to 31 March 2025. This is likely to include an initial period of intense training and support to the taskforces at the outset of the programme (April to December 2022) followed by ongoing support to taskforces as and when it is required. The provider will also be required to work with our evaluators to provide context and information on commissioning within the local areas, and to give regular updates on their delivery against a set of KPIs which will be developed following an initial period of discussion with the provider about how they will provide the above support.
