Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process initiated by Hampshire County Council has concluded with the awarding of a contract for the 'L3 Assistant Accountant' project. This initiative, categorised under Education and Training Services, involves providing training for four apprentice assistant accountants. Based in Winchester, England, the buying organisation managed the procurement using a selective method by calling off from an existing framework agreement. The contract commenced on 22 January 2026 and will extend until 22 July 2027, with key award updates on 30 March 2026. The total contract value amounts to £16,000 GBP.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in educational and training services, particularly those that can cater to apprentice development programmes. The procurement process highlights a commitment to involving small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), suggesting an inclusive approach towards bidding entities. Organisations with experience in framework agreements and delivering educational services can leverage this for business growth, with Hampshire County Council offering a consistent partnership throughout the contract period.
