Summary of the contracting process

The Police Digital Service has completed a procurement process for cyber security training services, awarding the contract to Security Team Training Ltd. The industry category falls under staff training services according to the CPV classification, focusing on providing specialised cyber security training. This procurement was conducted via a direct procurement method, specifically a single tender action below threshold, indicating a less competitive process suitable for a sole supplier. The tender was initiated with the award finalised on 10th November 2024, following the tender period ending on 10th November 2024. The contract spans from 11th November 2024 to 10th November 2025, serving locations within the United Kingdom, with particular focus on London.

This procurement highlights an opportunity for SMEs, particularly those specialising in cyber security and staff training services, to engage with public sector entities like the Police Digital Service. Although this contract has been awarded, future opportunities are likely in this evolving field, as organisations aim to enhance their cyber resilience. Businesses with expertise in cyber security training could position themselves as ideal candidates for similar tenders. Engaging with such procurements can lead to business growth through establishing partnerships with public sector bodies, expanding service offerings, and gaining reputation within the industry.
