Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Work and Pensions bought delivery of a Level 4 Data Analyst apprenticeship (standard ST0118) for its employees. This is staff training, intended to develop data analysis skills through an apprenticeship programme. Delivery covers England, Scotland and Wales. The procurement was made by the Department for Work and Pensions, with the training serving employees across those three nations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Multiverse Group Ltd on 19 October 2026. The awarded contract value was £3,000. The contract period runs from 19 October to 8 November 2026. The Department used a direct single-tender action below the threshold, drawing on the RM6102 framework. The original tender deadline was 30 September 2026. The requirement was for a single Level 4 Data Analyst apprenticeship delivery for DWP employees, rather than a set of separately identified lots. The published information does not give a scored evaluation breakdown or specific supplier eligibility tests.

This award shows demand from the Department for Work and Pensions for employee training against the Level 4 Data Analyst apprenticeship standard, delivered across England, Scotland and Wales. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to demonstrate the ability to deliver that specific apprenticeship programme to public-sector employees across a geographically dispersed workforce. Experience supporting learners through data analyst training and delivering the required standard would be directly relevant. The award was made through the RM6102 framework using a single-tender action, so suppliers seeking similar work would need to be positioned to supply through the relevant route. The recorded requirement is a short, focused programme rather than a broad training portfolio; capability in the specific apprenticeship standard and nationwide delivery is therefore central to its relevance.
