Description
Birmingham Virtual School (BVS) is currently developing proposals for its enrichment programme prior to formulating any potential formal procurement opportunity. With this soft market testing , BVS is seeking input from the market as to what might be the most potentially attractive way of packaging and scoping any potential future procurement opportunity.
This exercise will also enable BVS to obtain insight into how potential providers might approach the delivery of the services. It will also provide useful insight into the likely level of interest in the proposed Service(s).
Potential bidders will not be prejudiced by any response or failure to respond to this exercise or attend the meetings. Potential bidders should note that a response to this notice does not guarantee an invitation to participate in any possible future procurement that the Council may conduct, nor that the Council will procure any such supply and services or accept any proposals offered.
BVS has developed a questionnaire for interested parties to complete and return. Providers will have the opportunity to attend a consultation session or be invited to meet with the project team to discuss the responses. The Provider consultation sessions will take place on
Monday 08th April 10am-11.30am and Thursday 11th April 11.30am-1.00pm
The outcome of this soft market testing will inform an options appraisal with recommendations.
Please note, the responses will be treated with the strictest confidence. Interested parties are requested to provide their views and thoughts and to avoid any promotional information at this stage.
Should you have any further questions, please contact BVS at birminghamvirtualschool@birmingham.gov.uk
