Summary of the contracting process

This public procurement process was conducted by Hampshire County Council for the provision of education and training services under the "Level 7 Senior Leader" initiative, focused on a senior leader apprenticeship. The procurement, now in the award stage, was completed through a selective call-off from a framework agreement, with Hampshire County Council acting as the buyer. Located in Winchester, England, the contract spans from 5th March 2025 to 1st September 2027. The total contract value is £22,000, awarded to Solent University, a large-scale provider based in Southampton. Key dates in the process included the tender end date on 4th March 2025, with Solent University being announced as the successful supplier on the same day.

This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses in the education and training sector, particularly those capable of delivering high-level leadership programs. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), could consider positioning themselves for similar future opportunities, given the expressed suitability for such organisations. Businesses with established frameworks or the capability to form part of a framework agreement are well-suited for competing in similar future procurement processes managed by local government entities like Hampshire County Council.
