Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Business and Trade, located in London, England, has concluded a procurement process for the "4 Data Analyst Apprenticeship for 2 Learners" project. This contract involves the delivery of services under the industry category of Adult and Other Education Services, specifically targeting the data analyst apprenticeship training. The procurement was conducted using a selective method, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, and has now reached the award stage, with the contract awarded to QA Limited. The contract began on 22nd June 2026 and will run until 22nd June 2028, with a total value of £30,000. The geographical reach for this contract encompasses the British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, Isle of Man, the Rest of the World, and the United Kingdom.

This tender offers businesses an opportunity to engage in a sector focused on educational services, particularly at the apprenticeship level. Companies experienced in adult education, especially those with a background in data analysis training, stand to benefit from such contracts. Although SMEs and VCSEs were noted as having no suitability advantage in this particular process, larger established firms with a robust track record in delivering educational services would find this opportunity aligns with their capabilities. Partnering or subcontracting with organisations like QA Limited, already successful in securing the contract, can also be a strategic move for expansion within the education service market.
