This contract aims to provide Enhanced Early Years Provision for children with complex needs in South Worcestershire, targeting locations in Worcester City, Malvern, and Wychavon. The contract period is 3 years from 1st January 2024 to 31st December 2026, with a potential extension of up to 2 years. The procurement method is an open procedure, and the tender deadline is set for 6th October 2023. This tender opportunity by Worcestershire County Council presents a chance for businesses in the pre-school education and daycare services sector to expand their operations. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise organisations (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate. The contract period offers a stable revenue stream for the selected provider, creating room for growth and innovation in delivering specialized early years provision services in the West Midlands region. ## Notice Worcestershire Children First (WCF) are looking to broker an Enhanced Early Years Provision (EEYP) for children whose identified complex needs make it difficult to attend an early year provision. The intention is to deliver EEYP within South Worcestershire as a pilot. WCF are looking for a provision within Worcester City or Malvern and have assessed the current sufficiency need could be up to 35 children a year. WCF are also looking for a provision in Wychavon and have assessed the current sufficiency need could be up to 25 children a year. WCF have evidence of an increase in the numbers of children needing an Enhanced Provision over the last several years. It is anticipated that the numbers required will increase. This will need to be reviewed as part of the pilot. Contract will be for 3 years starting 1st January 2024 to 31st December 2026, with an option to extend for a further year, plus a further year (maximum 5 years) dependant upon the success of the pilot.
