Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence is planning a procurement process for the Army Apprenticeship Programme focused on the Royal Signals and Intelligence Corps Services. This involves the delivery of education and training services across the United Kingdom, with a total value estimated at £13,980,700 (net) and £16,776,840 (gross). The planned contract period is from August 2027 to July 2033, and the procurement stage is currently at the planning phase. Interested parties should note that future communication regarding the tender is scheduled for September 2026.

This tender represents a substantial opportunity for businesses involved in education and training services. Given its suitability criteria, both small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to consider applying. Unsurprisingly, this procurement aligns with central government objectives, offering long-term growth potential for businesses with portfolios geared towards service delivery within the defence sector and a capability to fulfil complex apprenticeship program requirements. Businesses with expertise in handling large-scale training projects and those able to navigate government procurement processes will find this opportunity particularly beneficial.
