Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Cabinet Office procured a cloud-based, automated self-service booking platform as the dedicated system for the National School of Government and Public Services. It is intended to support the move from learning services delivered by external providers to an in-house model for centrally delivered training courses. The requirement is for a digital booking service rather than the delivery of training itself. The recorded delivery location is Birmingham. The procurement is categorised as services and relates to software and information systems.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to BOOKINGLAB Limited. The award was made on 7 October 2026. The awarded value is £150,000, with a contract period from 12 October 2026 to 11 October 2028. The original tender deadline was 25 September 2026. The Cabinet Office used a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The tender record identifies the opportunity as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. The award is recorded as active.

This award shows demand from the Cabinet Office for a cloud-based booking platform to support centrally delivered public-sector training and an in-house delivery model. Suppliers competing for a future requirement of this kind would need to demonstrate a reliable automated self-service booking system suited to managing course bookings. Relevant strengths include experience delivering cloud software and supporting organisations moving learning provision from external providers to internal teams. The selected supplier is a small business, and the procurement was identified as suitable for SMEs, indicating that this type of requirement can be within reach of smaller technology suppliers. Credibility will depend on showing that the platform fits the Cabinet Office’s training operations and can support the transition to in-house delivery.
