Summary of the contracting process

Hampshire County Council procured education and training services for six Level 3 Data Technician apprentices. The requirement was for data technician training, with delivery in Winchester, indicated by the stated delivery postcode. The procurement was a service contract and was described as a call-off from a framework agreement.

The procurement is complete. Hampshire County Council selected Leep Talent Limited and Cambridge Spark, with an active award to each supplier. Both awards were dated 21 September 2026, each valued at £64,819, and each has a contract period from 22 September 2026 to 17 January 2028. The tender estimated the requirement at £78,000 and set a submission deadline of 1 October 2026. The route was a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The supplied information does not state how bids were evaluated or how the six apprentices were divided between the two awards.

This award shows demand from Hampshire County Council for Level 3 data technician apprenticeship training, delivered for a cohort of six apprentices through a framework call-off. Leep Talent Limited and Cambridge Spark were selected, making experience delivering this specific type and level of apprenticeship relevant evidence for suppliers competing when the requirement next comes to market. The procurement is marked as suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so organisations of those types may be relevant competitors. The records do not identify particular accreditations, technical platforms or delivery capacity requirements; the clearest basis for assessing fit is the ability to provide the specified apprenticeship training at cohort scale.
