Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Bassetlaw District Council procured a leadership and talent academy providing training services for current and aspiring leaders. The programme is intended to strengthen leadership at all levels during the council’s ongoing transformation. Its scope includes building core supervision and management capability, providing practical tools for leading diverse teams and managing complexity, and helping participants respond confidently to change. The intended outcomes are stronger organisational resilience and improved service delivery. Delivery is associated with Bassetlaw District Council in Worksop, within the East Midlands. This is a management and leadership development service rather than general staff training, consultancy or the supply of goods. The procurement is classified under CPV 80500000, covering training services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Bassetlaw District Council used a selective call-off from the Bloom framework NEPRO3. The contract was awarded to Keystone Training Ltd on 13 July 2026 for £104,350.22 including the stated currency of GBP. The estimated procurement range was £86,958.52 to £104,350.22. The contract runs from 13 July 2026 to 13 July 2028. The tender submission deadline was 12 July 2026 at 23:59. The published information identifies the award and supplier but does not set out separate lots or a detailed quality-and-price scoring model. The opportunity was assessed as unsuitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and for voluntary, community and social enterprises.

This award indicates demand from Bassetlaw District Council for a structured leadership development programme supporting both established and aspiring managers. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need to design and deliver development across different leadership levels, with practical supervision and management content rather than purely theoretical learning. Relevant capability includes helping managers lead diverse teams, handle organisational complexity and implement change, while linking participant development to resilience and public service delivery. Providers should be able to work within a council transformation context and support participants with tools that can be applied in day-to-day management. Experience delivering coherent leadership academies, rather than isolated training sessions, would be particularly relevant to this buyer’s stated requirement.
