## Summary

The temporary workers and supply teachers procurement process is being led by the Welsh Government, focusing on the provision of personnel services, including supply teachers and temporary staff. Categorized under services, this procurement is at the planning stage and aims to establish a framework agreement. The tender has an estimated gross value of £960 million and is set to commence from 1st August 2027, concluding on 31st July 2031. The procurement is intended for use within the United Kingdom and is subject to Welsh devolved regulations, as detailed by the legal framework under UKPGA 2023/54. Stakeholders should be aware of a future notice scheduled for 1st December 2026. The procurement process is set to unfold in Cardiff, with Corporate Procurement Services serving as the primary contact point.

With a substantial budget in place, this procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in temporary staffing services. Companies experienced in delivering personnel, particularly those with expertise in placing supply teachers, are well-suited to participate. The framework agreement approach provides an ongoing opportunity for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage competitively. This process not only facilitates market transparency but also invites innovative solutions that may influence policy decisions related to educational staffing needs across the UK.
