Summary of the contracting process

The tender, titled "Practitioner in Freedom of Information," was initiated for the procurement of training services in the Freedom of Information (FOI) domain. The buying organisation, Shared Services Connected Limited, located in England, seeks to upskill their FOI Request team through certified training. This procurement falls under the Education and Training Services category (CPV code 80000000) and includes a classroom-based component for 8-10 delegates in the United Kingdom. The procurement method is direct, specifically a single tender action below the threshold, and has transitioned from the tender phase to the award phase. The contract period starts on 3rd September 2024 and ends on 2nd September 2025, with a contract value of £12,000. Relevant deadlines include the tender period ending on 2nd September 2024.

This tender can create significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational training services, particularly those experienced in public sector legal frameworks such as FOI and Environmental Information Regulations. The specific focus on FOI training allows businesses to showcase their expertise in legal judgements and regulatory compliance. Businesses well-suited for this opportunity include SMEs with a proven track record in delivering high-quality, certified training programmes. The contract's relatively modest budget suggests a potential fit for smaller, agile training companies capable of providing tailored, impactful educational services. This procurement offers a strategic entry point for businesses aiming to establish or expand their presence in the public sector training market.
