## Summary

The Scottish Borders Council is seeking suppliers for its Framework Agreement on Early Learning and Childcare for 3 and 4-year-olds, which is currently at the Award stage. The deadline for submission was 8th December 2017, following a tender period that opened on 8th November 2017. This initiative represents a significant investment in public services, covering the Scottish Borders region and offering a total contract value of £3,000,000. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, allowing a broad pool of applicants to participate.

This tender presents considerable opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) specialising in childcare services.
