Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Skills Bootcamps Wave 5 - Mini Competition Lot 4 (Business and Administration Services)" has been completed by the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority, a regional authority in Sheffield, United Kingdom. This contract, classified under the industry category of "Adult and other education services," follows a limited procurement method. The rationale for this method was that the procurement fell outside the scope of the directive, hence an award procedure without prior publication was used. The contract was actively awarded to Clear Quality Limited, based in Rotherham, with a signing date of 1st November 2024 and a contract value of £73,440. The procurement stage is currently at the Award phase, indicating the completion of the tendering process.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the education and training services sector, particularly those specialising in business and administration services. It is ideally suited to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) capable of delivering high-quality education services, as the award criteria placed an emphasis on quality (80%) over price (20%). Engaging in such contracts can catalyse growth for enterprises by expanding their project portfolio and establishing a strong presence within the public sector. Additionally, the use of a framework agreement for the procurement, via the SYMCA Bootcamps Framework, suggests ongoing potential opportunities for businesses capable of offering superior educational solutions.
