Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "Regulatory and Auditing Training FWA 2025 - 29" was led by Natural Resources Wales, a public authority governed by Welsh devolved regulations. Located in Cardiff, this contract was awarded on 19th November 2025, with contract activities commencing on 10th November 2025. This four-year framework agreement, valued at £500,000, focuses on the provision of education and training services within the United Kingdom. The procurement operation followed an open procedure, covered by GPA agreements, and utilised a framework agreement for direct award without reopening competition. This process is currently in the award stage following the completion of previous planning and tendering phases.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in training services, particularly those focusing on regulation, audit, and management systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) dedicated to educational development and adaptation to environmental management systems will find this contract particularly advantageous. Offering courses like 'How to Regulate' and 'Auditing for Sustainable Management of Natural Resources', the framework aims to encourage innovation in training delivery and course updates, opening doors for continued business growth within the educational sector. Additionally, as sole supplier Interaction Learning & Development's involvement suggests, businesses with experience in framework agreements can leverage the commitment to a four-year partnership with Natural Resources Wales for increased visibility and future opportunities.
