Summary of the contracting process

The Police & Crime Commissioner for Cleveland has completed a selective procurement process for the Police Constable Entry Route Programme, under the framework agreement referenced as BLC00133. This call-off from the Blue Light Commercial Framework, with an awarded value of £1,458,000, focuses on delivering education and training services in the Middlesbrough area, specifically at the postcode TS8 9GL. The procurement process has advanced to the award stage, with Teesside University identified as the supplier. The contract period commenced on 26th August 2025 and will end on 31st March 2031. This process was completed shortly after the tender period concluded on 25th August 2025.

This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for organisations specialising in educational and training services, though it prioritises those with a focus or capacity to work within existing framework agreements.

Businesses adept at delivering comprehensive training programmes for the public sector, particularly those with expertise in law enforcement education, will find this opportunity aligns well with their capabilities and market interests.
