Summary of the contracting process

North Northamptonshire Council has completed the procurement process for the delivery of an L7 Professional Accountancy or Taxation Professional Apprenticeship. This contract, valued at £42,000, focuses on the education and training services industry, specifically within the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The procurement stage reached the award phase on 18th August 2025. The contract, initiated by a waiver (NNC 666537674) method, spans four years from 4th January 2025 to 3rd January 2029. The award was made to CIPFA, demonstrating collaboration between local councils and established large-scale providers.
