Summary of the contracting process

The Police Digital Service procured training consultancy services for delivery in the United Kingdom. The requirement is described as a training course and classified as human resources management consultancy services (CPV 79414000). The work sits within the services category and is intended for the Police Digital Service, based in London. The scope indicates a focused consultancy-led training requirement rather than the supply of physical goods or construction works. Organisations providing professional training, learning and development, or human resources consultancy services may find the subject matter relevant, particularly where they can design and deliver structured training courses for a public sector client. The requirement is specific to this buyer’s training and consultancy needs.

This procurement has been completed and awarded following a selective procedure using a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract was awarded to Permanent Futures Ltd. on 28 August 2026 for £21,540 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract period runs from 1 September 2026 to 31 October 2026. The tender submission deadline was 28 August 2026 at 12:00. The recorded procurement value and awarded value are both £21,540. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not identified as suitable for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The award is active and the tender status is complete.

This award shows that the Police Digital Service uses a framework call-off route to purchase short, defined training consultancy assignments, and that an SME supplier can win this type of work. A credible future competitor would need the ability to design and deliver training courses, supported by practical expertise in human resources management consultancy. Relevant providers should be comfortable working to a public sector brief, mobilising efficiently for a focused assignment, and demonstrating a clear understanding of learning outcomes and delivery quality. Experience of comparable organisational training or workforce development work would help establish credibility. Suppliers already appointed to relevant frameworks may be particularly well placed to compete through the same purchasing route.
