## Summary

South Lanarkshire Council has completed Phase 3 of their multi-lot, multi-provider Procured Services Arrangement (PSA) for educational services. This open procedure allowed for an established framework agreement offering services funded by various education sources including Pupil Equity Funding and Mental Health Funding. The awarded contracts cover "Activity Based and Residential Learning" and "Professional Learning," delivering services across South Lanarkshire. The key stages of this procurement have concluded with notable contracts signed on 25th August 2023 and 9th July 2024, respectively. Kirsty Stewart at South Lanarkshire Council spearheaded this initiative.

This PSA presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational services, notably those capable of delivering both activity-based learning and professional development programs. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Under the Trees Ltd, which has already been awarded contracts under this scheme, are well-suited to compete for similar opportunities. The comprehensive scope of services required provides room for varied educational providers to contribute meaningfully to the sector, potentially fostering long-term business growth and development within public education contracts.
