Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Activate Learning, based in Oxford, seeking to provide apprenticeship training services under the title "Provision of Apprenticeship Training." This contract falls under the education and training services category, specifically aimed at training apprentices in utilities engineering programmes. The procurement method employed was a limited award procedure, conducted without prior publicised competition, as the contract value of £58,700 is below the threshold for public contract regulations. The contract was signed on 1st August 2020, and while the associated lot for 14 apprentices was cancelled, the award remains active with Chelmsford College as the supplier.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the education and training sector, particularly those specialised in utilities engineering. Businesses that have a proven track record in delivering quality training and are adept at meeting the specific needs of apprentices would be well-positioned to compete. Companies equipped to provide tailored training solutions and with an understanding of local apprenticeship requirements would benefit greatly from future contracts in this domain, as the focus on apprenticeship training is likely to expand in the coming years.
