Summary of the contracting process

This initiative aims to support individuals potentially at risk of engaging in criminal activities and is guided by the Procurement Act 2023. The procurement engagement is underway, with the market engagement scheduled to close on 13th June 2025.

The main procurement category is services, specifically within the specialist training services industry, and the contract period is anticipated to start on 1st September 2026, extending potentially to August 2030.
