Summary of the contracting process

Telford and Wrekin Council is seeking Approved Providers for "Learning and Development County Wide Training" under a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS). The procurement falls within the education and training services category and covers a broad geographic area, including the United Kingdom, British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, and the Rest of the World. Starting from 31 May 2022 and running until 30 May 2025, the DPS follows a restricted procedure requiring a 2-stage process: an initial selection based on an online questionnaire and subsequent mini-competitions for contract awards. Key contacts include Rebecca Hirst, reachable at Rebecca.Hirst@telford.gov.uk, and the DPS ensures flexibility without compromising quality.

This tender represents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of providing high-quality training and development services. By becoming an Approved Provider, businesses can secure valuable contracts through competitive bidding processes within the DPS framework, which is designed to ensure exceptional value for money for the Council. Local, regional, and national providers, particularly those specialising in education and workforce development, will find fertile ground for business growth and long-term collaborations.
