## Summary

The procurement process for the "Education Programme: STEM Outreach" has been conducted by HS2 Ltd, a public body based in Birmingham, UK. This programme falls under the education and training services category and aims to deliver STEM outreach activities to primary and secondary schools across five regional lots in the UK.
