Summary of the contracting process

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) has completed the tender process for a project titled "Optimising Local Skills Improvement Fund (LSIF) Investment and Ensuring Collaborative Success GMCA 933". This project, classified under the education and training services industry, is geographically located within England, United Kingdom. The procurement was conducted through an open procedure, with significant dates including the tender period end on 15th February 2024 and the project contract running from 3rd April 2024 to 31st March 2025. The award, valued at £40,000, was granted to Wigan & Leigh College to provide continued central project support.

This tender offers considerable growth opportunities for businesses specialising in educational support services. While the initial grant was awarded to a large entity, the nature of the project may require additional services and collaborations, potentially opening doors for businesses capable of providing specialised training and project management solutions. Both established educational institutions and training service providers, particularly those with expertise in the UK education sector, would be well-positioned to leverage such opportunities to expand their services and client base.
