## Summary

Torbay Council recently completed the re-tendering process for support services for ethnic minority and traveller communities, provision of English as an additional language, and advisory services to the Torbay Standing Advisory Council for Religious Education (SACRE). The procurement falls under the education and training services category, targeting the South West region of the United Kingdom. The open procedure process, conducted below the threshold level, concluded with the contract awarded to Devon County Council on 20 August 2021. The contract commenced on 1 September 2021 and will run until 31 August 2025, with a total contract value of £43,900.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in education, community support, and religious advisory services. Companies with a strong background in supporting ethnic minorities, traveller communities, and providing educational consultancy would be well-suited to compete for similar contracts in the future. The re-tendering process has allowed Torbay Council to ensure continued support for vital community services, thus fostering sustainable business growth for service providers within these niches. The open procurement method underscores the council's commitment to transparency and competitiveness, which benefits qualified businesses of various scales.

## Notice

Torbay Council conducted a new tender process earlier in 2021, with the intention of formalising future arrangements by putting a Contract in place for the following three support services: Lot 1: Support for Torbay Governing Body Support Services; Lot 2 - Support for Torbay and Ethnic Minority and Traveller Support and English as an additional language; Lot 3: Provision of an Adviser to Torbay Standing Advisory Council for Religious Education (SACRE). The overall aim was to ensure Torbay schools have access to good quality help and support for Torbay Governing Body Support Services, for Ethnic Minority and Traveller Services and continuous support for Standing Advisory Committee for Religious Education (SACRE). Bids received for this Tender process only identified (and subsequently awarded a contract to) a successful bidder, for Lot 1: Support for Torbay Governing Body Support Services. Therefore, a Re-tender opportunity was conducted with the aim of awarding a new Contract(s) for both: Lot 2: Support for Torbay and Ethnic Minority and Traveller Support and English as an additional language; And: Lot 3: Provision of an Adviser to Torbay Standing Advisory Council for Religious Education (SACRE), either to one successful Applicant or to different successful Applicants, for each service. Following this Re-tender, a Contract for both Lots 2 and 3 was awarded.
