Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NCG procured a community and tenant engagement programme for adult learners, delivered in partnership with Kidderminster College and NCG Online Learning. The requirement sits within education and training services and is intended to support engagement with communities and tenants around adult learning. Delivery is associated with Kidderminster, Worcestershire, while the programme involves collaboration with NCG’s education partners. NCG is the buying organisation. The service is relevant to providers of adult education engagement, community outreach, tenant participation, learning support and related programme delivery. Organisations able to work across education and community settings may find the requirement particularly relevant, especially where they can coordinate effectively with a college and an online learning provider.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective call-off from NCG’s Education Services dynamic purchasing system. The tender submission deadline was 26 May 2026 at 5pm, and the contract was awarded on 29 May 2026 to Gateway Managed Services Limited. The awarded value is £250,000 including the stated currency, with an estimated procurement range of £100,000 to £250,000. The contract period runs from 1 June 2026 to 31 July 2027. The award is active and the tender status is complete. The process was evaluated through the dynamic purchasing system call-off route, with the requirement classified as a services procurement. The opportunity was identified as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community or social enterprises.

This award indicates demand for structured community and tenant engagement linked to adult learning, rather than education delivery in isolation. A credible future competitor would need practical experience engaging adult learners, tenants and local communities, together with the ability to manage participation programmes across physical and online channels. Partnership management would be important, including effective coordination with further education providers and an online learning operation. Suppliers should be able to organise reliable delivery, communicate with varied audiences and demonstrate outcomes from engagement activity. The procurement also shows that NCG uses its Education Services dynamic purchasing system for this type of requirement, so suppliers in the relevant education, outreach and community engagement market should understand and be able to operate through that route.
