Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice is currently in the planning stage for the Integrated Rehabilitation Partnership (IRP Prison Kitchen) programme, which is aimed at enhancing rehabilitation for prisoners through catering training and employment support. This procurement, categorised under Education and Training Services (CPV code 80000000), involves the potential expansion of a previously successful pilot that served three prisons, with a view to potentially including up to 70 prisons across the UK over the next two years. An engagement event for interested providers is scheduled for 29th November 2018, with bookings required by 23rd November 2018. Interested parties can find more details on the planned event and express their interest through the MOJ Bravosolution sourcing portal, with further details to be confirmed post-registration.

This initiative presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the training and community support sector, particularly those experienced in delivering NVQ City & Guilds accredited training in food preparation and cooking. Companies that specialise in catering training, mentoring, and rehabilitation services for vulnerable populations will find a suitable fit in this procurement process. By collaborating with the Ministry of Justice, these businesses can not only contribute to a social impact project but also expand their reach within the public sector, potentially securing contracts across a larger number of prison facilities.
