Located in Ipswich, Suffolk, the Council has undertaken this procurement process as a sub-central government authority. This tender falls under the education and training services category and has been segmented into four lots, each focusing on different parental support areas. The procurement, completed in the UKH14 region, followed an open competition method, allowing for a broad range of competitors. The total value of the contract, inclusive of VAT, stands at £180,000. The contract commenced on 1st December 2025 and is scheduled to end on 30th November 2027, with the option for a one-year extension.

Given the focus on supporting parents and families, companies specialising in educational programmes, guidance services, or social care support would be well-suited to participate in similar future tenders. The division of the contract into four lots offers flexibility and encourages participation from small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs).
