Summary, notice description and lot information
Gloucestershire County Council has completed the award stage for the Gloucestershire Holiday Activities and Food Programme (HAF), under the health and social work services sector. This procurement focuses on providing activities and food for children eligible for Free School Meals during school holidays. The projects are regionally distributed across locations such as Gloucester City, Cheltenham Borough, and others in the UKK1 region.
The contract extension's value is estimated at £1,700,000, to accommodate necessary additional services from existing suppliers within a framework agreement that follows a negotiated procedure without prior competition due to technical reasons and potential economic inconvenience. This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses that specialise in delivering educational and social services. Companies positioned to provide district leadership, activity coordination, or specialist services for Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) can benefit from this initiative.
Both larger organisations and SMEs across the region can apply to join the framework agreement during the extension, subject to assessment periods aligned with the HAF seasonal calendar, thus allowing a diverse range of businesses to contribute to and grow through this community-centred initiative.
