Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice has completed the award stage of its selective tender process for educational and training services under the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System. The contract, valued at £16,125.63, involves the provision of a Car Valeting and Maintenance course for residents of HMP Leyhill, located in the South West of the United Kingdom. The contract period starts on 7th July 2025 and ends on 6th May 2026. This procurement falls under the category of education and training services, and the procurement method used was a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, indicating a selective approach to engaging suitable service providers.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in car maintenance training, especially those that are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or organisations within the voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) sectors. As the supplier, Complete Skills Solutions, a small enterprise, demonstrates that smaller firms with specialist skills in vehicle maintenance and educational training are well-placed to benefit from such niche procurement opportunities. With selective procurement providing a streamlined avenue for qualified suppliers, businesses targeting education within the criminal justice system could find routes to growth and partnership with government bodies.
