Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) has completed a public procurement process for the provision of a Chartered Manager Degree Apprenticeship (CMDA) under its Army Apprenticeship Programme. This initiative, classified under the education and training services category (CPV: 80000000), was conducted via an open procedure method and catered specifically to non-commissioned officers (NCOs) and warrant officers (WOs). The process culminated on 18 August 2021, with the contract commencing on the same date and continuing until 31 August 2028. The tender was awarded to Staffordshire University, with a contract value of £5,700,000. Delivery for the apprenticeships is located within the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses within the education and training sector, especially those specialising in higher education and vocational training services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in delivering degree-level apprenticeships are well-suited for such engagements, given the MOD's focus on maximising talent and improving organisational culture. The long-term contract also provides a stable revenue stream and the potential for further collaborations with the MOD.
