Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency has completed a public procurement process titled "Masters in Economics," classified under the industry category of "Adult-education services at university level" (CPV code 80430000). The contract, valued at £10,840, was awarded through a single tender action (below threshold) directly to Birkbeck College University of London. The procurement pertains to services to be delivered at addresses in London, UK (postal code E14 4PU), with the contract period running from 1 October 2024 to 30 September 2026. The procurement stage is now at the award phase, with the contract having been awarded on 2 October 2024 and officially published on 29 October 2024.

This contract offers significant opportunities for educational institutions specialising in adult and university-level education services. Such contracts can provide steady and predictable revenue streams over the contract period, enhancing the service provider's portfolio and reputation. While SMEs were not a main focus, the procurement was particularly suitable for VCSEs (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprises). Institutions with the capability to deliver comprehensive Master’s programmes and those with a track record in adult education would be well-positioned to compete for similar future opportunities.
