Summary, notice description and lot information
Renfrewshire Council, located in Paisley, is seeking service providers through an open procurement for the reopening of a flexible framework for Early Learning and Childcare Places. This procurement process primarily focuses on child daycare services, with a special emphasis on registered child day-care providers and childminders. The framework, which initially commenced in April 2021, is currently at the active tender stage and is open until 7 November 2023.
The framework aims to extend services until at least April 2024, with possibilities for two additional one-year extensions. The procurement covers services in the Renfrewshire area under the UKM83 region classification, following the guidelines in the regulations applicable to social services. This tender represents an excellent opportunity for registered childcare service providers, including SMEs, especially those already registered with the Care Inspectorate or those able to meet technical criteria such as qualifications and insurance requirements.
The focus on making early learning more flexible aligns with the Scottish Government’s directives, ensuring a steady demand in a growing industry. With a significant budget allocation of £42,000,000, the framework provides a robust financial backdrop for both new entrants and established providers looking to expand their service offerings in the region, fostering business growth and increasing the capacity for serving pre-school education services in the community.
