Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The most recent procurement process awarded by Kirklees Council involves the Skills Bootcamp 2025/26 project, focusing on education and training services. The procurement covers several industry categories, including Construction & Green Technologies, Manufacturing & Engineering, Professional Services, and Health & Social Care. Located in the Yorkshire and the Humber region, this contract is part of a selective procurement method using a dynamic purchasing system. The procurement stage is now at the award phase, following the completion of the tender period which ended on 16th April 2025. With the contract period set to begin on 1st May 2025 and conclude by 31st March 2026, there is an optional extension of an additional 12 months upon satisfactory performance and further funding. Key details include a total service value of approximately £204,000, distributed across various lots, each designed to cater to different sectors.

This tender offers compelling opportunities for businesses seeking growth, particularly those skilled in offering education and training services in the specified industry sectors. Small and medium enterprises with capabilities aligned to these requirements can particularly benefit, given the council's inclination towards engaging SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Suppliers like Kirklees College, Textile Centre of Excellence, and Skills-UK Education & Training Ltd have successfully been awarded contracts for different lots under this procurement. Businesses seeking to expand within or enter the education and training sector, especially within the specified regions, stand to gain from participating in such tenders due to the focused lot system, which allows for targeted service delivery and contract opportunity realisation.
