Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice commissioned demolition training for prisoners at HMP/YOI Isis in London. The service is a demolition course intended to help prisoners gain employment in the construction industry after release. It combines an accredited, industry-standard Certificate of Competence of Demolition Operatives (CCDO) course with Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) and Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) health and safety training. This is a specialist education and training service focused on preparing learners for demolition work and supporting entry into construction employment. The requirement is centred on delivering the course and its associated industry-recognised qualifications and safety training to prisoners at the establishment.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to National Demolition Training Group. The award was made on 2 October 2026, for £19,680. The contract period runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The Ministry of Justice used a selective call-off from its Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System; the tender submission deadline was 14 September 2026 at 15:00. The requirement was treated as a services procurement. The published information does not set out a separate evaluation basis or additional eligibility conditions, so the outcome and route provide the main recorded process details for suppliers assessing this procurement.

For suppliers considering similar prison education work for the Ministry of Justice, this award demonstrates demand for practical, employment-focused training linked to construction careers. A credible provider would need the capability to deliver demolition training and support learners towards the Certificate of Competence of Demolition Operatives, alongside CSCS and CITB health and safety training. The delivery model needs to work with prisoners at a prison establishment and focus on skills that can support employment after release. The buyer used a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, so familiarity with that route is commercially relevant. The recorded supplier was an SME, and the procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises.
