West Midlands Combined Authority
Adult Education Budget (AEB) - Market Testing Exercise
This is a large award for Education & Training — above three-quarters of comparable contracts. Based on 23,516 valued Education & Training tenders in our corpus.
West Midland Combined Authority (WMCA) are seeking to engage with suppliers to conduct a pre-procurement market testing exercise in relation to the procurement of provision funded by its devolved share of the Adult Education Budget (AEB) in the 2019/2020 academic year.
The purpose of the market testing exercise will be to research the market in order to assist WMCA in drafting the specification and approach of the wider procurement process.
A decision not to participate in the market testing exercise will not preclude you from taking part in the wider tender process.
