## Summary

The North Ayrshire Council has successfully completed the procurement process for the "North Ayrshire ESOL & Employability Project - Refugee Provision," which focused on providing essential language support services to refugees. This project falls under the services category, particularly within general public services and health sectors. The contract was awarded on 31 August 2017, and the procurement method used was a selective, restricted procedure. The programme was executed in North Ayrshire, a region in the UK, with a total contract value of £58,000, and the award was given to the Workers Educational Association.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for businesses that specialise in language support and employability services, especially those with experience in working with refugees or disadvantaged communities. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the nature of the project and the specific skills required. Engaging with such procurement opportunities can enhance the visibility of businesses in the public sector, expand their service offerings, and allow them to contribute significantly to community development and integration efforts.
