Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Engineering Construction Industry Training Board (ECITB) procured a learning experience platform and AI conversation services, as a call-off agreement from the G-Cloud 14 framework. The requirement falls within education and training services and is intended to provide digital learning and AI-enabled conversations. The recorded delivery location is the United Kingdom. The buyer is ECITB, which supports training in the engineering construction industry. The procurement description identifies the platform and AI conversations but does not set out further operational detail about the platform, user numbers or specific AI functions.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Learning Pool Ltd. The award date was 31 May 2025, with an initial contract period from 31 May 2025 to 30 May 2027 and optional extensions of one year plus one year. The awarded value is £643,242. The original estimated value range was £300,000 to £650,000. ECITB used a selective framework call-off procedure under G-Cloud 14. The stated tender deadline was 30 May 2025. The source records SME and voluntary-sector suitability as false. No separate lot structure or evaluation criteria are set out in the process information.

This award demonstrates ECITB’s demand for a combined learning experience platform and AI conversation capability, purchased through a G-Cloud framework call-off. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement for this buyer would need to show that they can provide and support a digital learning platform alongside AI-enabled conversational services, rather than either capability in isolation. The selected supplier is recorded as a large business, and the opportunity was marked unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises; this suggests that suppliers should assess whether they have the scale and delivery capacity to meet the buyer’s requirement. The available scope does not identify particular accreditations, technical specifications or user volumes, so the evidence here is chiefly the type of solution and procurement route ECITB selected.
