Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice procured training services for its Operational Response and Resilience Unit (ORRU), specifically blue-light training for up to 100 staff members. The requirement covers staff training and safety training, including the capabilities needed for operational response and resilience activities. Delivery may take place across the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and other international locations. This is a services contract suited to organisations that can provide structured blue-light and safety training for public-sector operational staff across a broad geographical area. The procurement was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Ministry of Justice awarded the contract to HGV Training Services Limited on 8 September 2026. The awarded value is £180,500. The contract runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. The requirement was concluded through a mini-competition under the Yorkshire Purchasing Organisation Dynamic Purchasing System, using its Driving lot. The route was a selective call-off from a framework agreement rather than an open tender. The tender submission deadline was 2 July 2026 at 12:00. The awarded supplier is an SME. The award covers the full blue-light training requirement for the Operational Response and Resilience Unit.

This award shows demand for specialist blue-light training supporting operational response and resilience within the Ministry of Justice. A credible future competitor would need to deliver staff training and safety training for operational personnel, with the capacity to support up to 100 staff members. Providers should be able to design and deliver practical training relevant to blue-light operations, maintain appropriate safety standards, and manage delivery across the United Kingdom and potentially a wide range of overseas locations. The procurement route also matters: suppliers should be able to compete through a relevant dynamic purchasing system or framework call-off, and should monitor opportunities involving driving, operational response and public-sector workforce training. SME and VCSE status was accepted for this requirement.
