Summary of the contracting process

The public procurement process under review was conducted by Suffolk Constabulary for a Forensic Collision Investigation Course. Categorised within specialist training services, the procurement was managed through a limited method aimed at competitive quotations below the threshold. This process was located in the East of England, United Kingdom, with key dates including the tender period closing on 30th July 2025 and the contract period running from 1st August to 30th September 2025. The award was confirmed on 2nd August 2025, signalling the completion of the process. As the procurement stage indicates 'award', it signifies that the contract has been successfully awarded.

This tender creates opportunities for businesses involved in specialist training services, particularly those with capabilities to provide comprehensive training courses tailored to law enforcement needs. While the procurement process employed a competitive method, the limit on the procurement method suggests it was suitable for larger suppliers rather than small or voluntary sector enterprises. Businesses that can offer robust training services with accreditation, as ideally demonstrated by A1 Training Services Ltd, the awarded supplier, may find such procurement opportunities conducive to growth and expansion within this sector. Engaging in tenders of a similar nature could enhance business prospects and expand market reach in the governmental training domain.
