Summary of the contracting process

Anglian Water Services Limited procured apprenticeship levy training services through a dynamic purchasing system. The requirement covers education and personnel-training services (CPV 80000000 and 79632000) for apprenticeships supporting the organisation’s workforce. The active training areas are agriculture, environmental and animal care; business and administration; construction and the built environment; digital; engineering and manufacturing; health and science; legal, finance and accounting; sales, marketing and procurement; and transport and logistics. Delivery is associated with Anglian Water’s operating area across the East of England and nearby regions, including the East Midlands, Yorkshire and the Humber, and the East of England. The buyer is a water-sector organisation based in Huntingdon.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a selective negotiated procedure with prior competition, using a dynamic purchasing system. Its estimated value is £8,550,800. The system’s stated end date is 23 December 2027, with the active training categories described as lasting 1,800 days and without renewal or options. Eight awards are recorded as active, and related contracts were signed between 11 March 2025 and 19 January 2026. The active awards cover apprenticeship provision, while individual further competitions determine the evaluation weighting for each requirement. Nine named apprenticeship requirements were cancelled: digital technology solutions, lab technicians, maintenance operations engineering, accountancy, civil engineering and quantity surveying, water industry network technicians, and later digital technology and lab technician requirements. No cancellation reason is recorded.

This procurement demonstrates sustained demand from a major water-sector employer for apprenticeship training across both operational and corporate disciplines. Suppliers best placed for comparable requirements are established apprenticeship and workforce-training providers able to deliver recognised programmes in engineering, construction, water-related technical work, digital and data, laboratory science, business, finance, legal, procurement, logistics, environmental and animal-care subjects. Credible providers will need the teaching, assessment, learner-support and employer-engagement capability to serve apprentices across Anglian Water’s operating geography, and to respond to separate requirements within a dynamic purchasing system. Providers must be able to satisfy the buyer’s exclusion and selection requirements and submit electronically in English. The range of cancelled and awarded requirements indicates value in maintaining broad or specialist curriculum coverage.
