Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence has updated the contract for its "Project Delivery Function Apprenticeship", focused on data analytics at Level 4, with Projecting Success as the supplier. The contract was signed on the 18th of November, 2025, with a total value of £3,240,000 and is set for a duration of 900 days. This service falls under the education and training services category (CPV code: 80000000), and the location for its delivery is across the UK. This procurement is an ongoing contract at the award stage, following the initiation as a tender. Notably, a contract modification was made to include additional training capabilities due to unforeseen circumstances, specifically the need to accommodate a Level 7 cohort due to changes in funding eligibility effective January 2026.

This tender represents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the education and training sector, specifically those specialising in apprenticeship training with a focus on data analytics and project delivery. Large enterprises, as well as SMEs, with capabilities in delivering government-regulated and approved training programmes, are well-suited to engage with this contract. By expanding the scope to include higher-level apprenticeships, additional opportunities are created for suppliers with the capacity to scale training solutions and meet evolving public sector needs. Businesses equipped to respond to dynamic changes in funding and training demands can find substantial business development possibilities through participation in this procurement process.

Procurement Information

The Secretary of State for Defence intends to enter into a supply contract with for project delivery function apprenticeships for use in MOD Head Office in London. In accordance with the provisions of The Public Procurement (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 SI No. 2020/1319, this procurement falls to be regulated under the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as amended (in particular by SI 2020/1319). Prior publication of a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Union is no longer appropriate. It is considered that the award of the contract without prior publication of a contract notice in the UK e-notification service (as required by the relevant legislation) is lawful in accordance with regulation 32(b)(ii) of the PCR 2015 because competition is absent for technical reasons. Projecting Success is the only supplier capable of delivering the requirement as it the only provider whose course is regulated by Ofsted and is approved by ESFA to provide L4 apprenticeships to already qualified project managers. The course is a unique one as it is shaped to the job roles in the Infrastructure Project Authorities project delivery capability framework. Projecting Success is the only provider which offers both the technical knowledge and capability to deliver the bespoke training required to upskill MOD Project Delivery Professionals. Further, there is an urgency to develop our project delivery professional's capability in this area and so it wouldn't be feasible to delay procuring this service.
