Summary of the contracting process

Derbyshire County Council is organising a procurement process titled "Levy Funded Apprenticeships" within the vocational training services category. The procurement is planned to commence from 1st June 2025 until 1st June 2028, targeting the UKF1 region in the United Kingdom. This initiative is currently in the "planning" stage, with the council acting as the buying organisation. The tender is governed by legal provisions set under the UKPGA 2023/54 and anticipates further notice on 1st May 2025, following its initial planning announcement in April 2025. Despite its withdrawal status mentioned in December 2025, the planned process represents significant opportunities during its active planning phase.

This tender offers significant growth prospects for businesses specialising in vocational training and apprenticeships. With a gross value potential of GBP 7,800,000 and centred around government-funded apprenticeship schemes, enterprises that have expertise in tailoring apprenticeship programmes specifically for sub-central governmental bodies would be well-positioned to compete. The region-specific focus may also provide a competitive edge for businesses familiar with local council operations and requirements. Though the latest update indicates the tender's withdrawal, the previous planning notices suggest an evolving procurement landscape in training services within Derbyshire County Council's jurisdiction.
