The procurement falls under the education and training services sector (CPV 80000000) and was conducted via a direct award. The contract period is set from 1st January 2025 to 31st December 2025, with a total contract value of £95,490.08. The procurement targeted the Greater Manchester area but also mentioned a broader geographical scope including the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the UK, and the rest of the world.
