Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

What is being bought
Tender for the engagement with learners and delivery of non-accredited Tailored Learning opportunities within Herefordshire, in line with the council's priorities and priority groups. Multiple contracts may be awarded. Subject to the availability of budget, the Council intends to award contracts sequentially, commencing with the highest-ranked tenderer and continuing in descending order of ranking until the available budget has been allocated. There is the potential for one or more partial awards to be made in limited circumstances. Any partial award will be based on the rates, prices and terms submitted in the tender and will involve a proportionate reduction in the volume of delivery and price only. Further details can be found in the tender documents.
