Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured one Level 3 Procurement and Supply Assistant apprenticeship. The requirement is for procurement and supply training for a single apprentice, rather than a general supply of goods or a broader training programme. The work is associated with delivery in Winchester, indicated by the SO23 8UJ delivery postcode. The council is the buying organisation. This is a specialist apprenticeship opportunity for a provider able to deliver training in procurement and supply at Level 3, serving an individual learner.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to ABA Procurement Ltd. The award was made on 25 September 2026. The contract period runs from 28 September 2026 to 2 December 2027. The awarded value is £6,000. The council used a selective process, making a call-off from a framework agreement. The requirement was a single apprentice, with the contract covering the procurement and supply assistant apprenticeship. The process was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published information does not state an evaluation weighting or further selection requirements.

For providers competing when Hampshire County Council next buys this requirement, relevant capability is delivering a Level 3 apprenticeship in procurement and supply for an individual learner. This award demonstrates demand for a focused, single-apprentice training engagement, rather than a large cohort programme. Experience supporting learners to develop procurement and supply assistant skills would be directly relevant. A provider would also need to be able to deliver the apprenticeship in the Winchester area and operate through an appropriate framework route, since this procurement was a framework call-off. The recorded suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises indicates that organisations of those types can be appropriate competitors, subject to the framework and any future competition requirements. All facts are supported by this award; no additional accreditation or staffing criteria are set out. 񟿿
