The procurement process, classified under "Staff training services" (CPV code: 80511000), was conducted through the capitalEsourcing electronic procurement system and followed an open procedure, being below the threshold for additional regulations.

Additionally, the original tender was published on 16 October 2019, with a tender period that concluded on 4 November 2019.

This tender presents an opportunity for training service providers, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to engage with a key public sector client. Businesses specialising in staff training, especially those with experience in pre-retirement or retirement planning, would be well-positioned to compete for similar future tenders. The focus on supporting employees transitioning to retirement can create a niche market for tailored training solutions, ensuring that potential suppliers are primed to tap into this demand.
