## Summary

The public procurement contracting process, initiated by East Sussex County Council, focuses on delivering Skills Bootcamps in Education and Early Years. This initiative aims to provide Level 3 Early Years and Childminding Skills Bootcamps to 31 learners and Level 3 Teaching Assistant Skills Bootcamps to 13 learners. Located in the UKJ22 region of the United Kingdom, the procurement has reached the award and contract stage, with an active status. Key dates for this project include the start date of 15th October 2025, with an end date set for 30th September 2026. The procurement falls under the services industry category and uses a light touch procurement regime, necessitating a direct award to ensure immediate mobilisation due to the urgency of reallocation of funding to safeguard learner outcomes.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specializing in educational and training services, particularly those capable of delivering high-quality skills development programmes promptly. Given the direct award method employed due to time constraints, businesses with experience in swift mobilisation and continuity of service will be particularly well-suited to engage. The contract, valued at £160,500 plus VAT, provides a substantial growth opportunity for those in the education sector with the capacity to meet the programme's educational delivery requirements efficiently.

## Notice

Delivery of Skills Bootcamps in Education and Early Years to 44 learners in total, specifically: * Level 3 Early Years and Childminding Skills Bootcamps to 31 learners * Level 3 Teaching Assistant Skills Bootcamps to 13 learners Originally awarded provider no longer able to provide our requirements. We therefore have an urgent need to reallocate funding to safeguard provision for existing learners and ensure delivery within the contracted timeframe. There is insufficient time to run a full competitive procurement process without risking disruption to learners and failure to achieve agreed outcomes. A direct award allows mobilisation to begin immediately, ensuring continuity and value for money.
