Description

Birmingham City Council has published a prior information notice for a programme manager to provide overall management service for Holiday Activity and Food Provision during Scholl Holidays in Birmingham. This advert is not for an opportunity but to give the market notice pending when the advert goes live. The opportunity will be to seek suitably qualified and experienced provider(s) to develop, co-ordinate and manage the delivery of the Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) programme for children and young people, in line with Department of Education and Council's requirements.

The Council has split the management of this large-scale programme into the following two lots:

Lot 1: Overall Programme Management Partner (OPM)
Lot 2: Programme Management of Food and Standards (FPM)

The Council will be happy to award this contract to either two providers (one provider per lot) or one provider to deliver both lots, depending on the option that is Most Economically Advantageous for the council. Providers who wish to bid to manage the entire programme will need to demonstrate value for money/savings through economies of scale.

It is a one-year contract with 4 extensions of 12 months each extension (1+1+1+1+1). Please note state that funding is only available for the first year. Extension will be based on availability of funding for subsequent years and satisfactory contract delivery/performance.
