Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice has completed the award stage for a call-off contract under the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System to deliver training and qualifications in bakery at HMP Brixton. This contract, selectively procured as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, falls under the "Education and training services" category. The project location spans London and the South East of the United Kingdom, with the contract value set at £51,000. It covers the period from 21st May 2025 to 20th May 2026. The award was made to The Clink Charity, a socially-minded enterprise known for its work with the prison service.

This procurement offers significant business growth opportunities, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs) that specialise in educational and vocational training services. The dynamic purchasing system allows for ongoing opportunities to win contracts, making it ideal for businesses aiming to enter or expand within the public sector, especially those looking to make an impact in vocational education and social reform. Companies with innovative training capabilities and those able to deliver within a restricted environment would be well-positioned to compete in similar opportunities. The partnership with the Ministry of Justice reflects a commitment to high-quality service delivery in a pivotal area of rehabilitation and skill development.
