Tender description

East Sussex has awarded a provider for the provision of East Sussex wide Holiday and Short Break Activities. Short breaks are leisure activities that support children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). They give children and young people the opportunity to have fun, learn new skills and socialise while parents or carers take a break from caring. Short breaks can include provision for at least 2 hours up to overnight activities for the children and young people. These short breaks can take place in the child's home, an approved carer's home or in a residential/community setting. Short Breaks can include holiday activities, after school clubs, holiday play schemes, engagement activities and youth clubs or activities for all the family. Short breaks can be in specialist and universal settings and can be planned and regular as well as being available at short notice. Contract term includes initial 2 years with up to 24 months extension. Additional information: Contract value excludes VAT

About the buyer

Purchase orders and payments run through SAP, the council's purchase-to-pay system, with suppliers paid by BACS. Procurement sits in three categories, People, Place, and Corporate, IT and Governance, each with its own Procurement Partner. An Orbis Joint Committee oversees the partnership's shared procurement service.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of East Sussex County Council's contract awards have been in transport services, construction work and transport equipment.
