The procurement stage is currently at planning, with a key milestone of the engagement end date set for 12th December 2023. Potential suppliers are invited to a follow-up EME event on 12th December 2023 to provide feedback on the draft Terms of Reference and engage in shaping the Programme. This tender by the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office for the Education for All South Sudan Programme aims to support the provision of essential education services with a budget of up to £90 million. Businesses interested in foreign economic-aid-related services, specifically related to education, and those with a focus on improving education access and quality, would find this opportunity suitable for business growth. The event on 12th December 2023 provides a platform for suppliers to engage, offer innovative ideas, and potentially secure business opportunities within the Programme. ## Notice The Education For All South Sudan (EFASS) is the successor to phase one and two of the Girls Education South Sudan (GESS) programme, which has been running since 2012. The anticipated budget is up to PS90 million, and we anticipate a continuation of the current multi donor model (where other donors make contributions to the Programme in addition to the PS90m FCDO funding). The Programme seeks to support the provision of essential education services, particularly to girls and children living with disabilities, and enhance the linkages with other UK and wider sector efforts to improve education access and quality. The Programme will coordinate activities with other education programmes being implemented in South Sudan including Global Partnership for Education (GPE), Education Cannot Wait (ECW), World Bank (WB) education sector and Public Financial Management support. The FCDO is holding a follow-up Early Market Engagement (EME) event on 12th December 2023 (13:00-14:30 BST) to the previous EME event previously held on 14th August 2023 for forthcoming Education For All South Sudan (EFASS). This is to provide a refresher on the Programme's overview; get market feedback on the draft Terms of Reference (ToR); to respond to any questions the market has; to gauge the market interest; understand the markets strengths and weaknesses and learn from the market to shape elements of the Programme and to inform the procurement activity. It will also allow potential suppliers to engage and provide innovative ideas.
