Summary of the contracting process

The Department for Business & Trade has completed the contracting process for the provision of Treaty Text Training at both Foundation and Practitioner levels. This procurement falls under the 'services' category, specifically adult and other education services, and covers a contract period from 29th May 2025 to 30th March 2027, with an option to extend by six months. Based in London, the buyer operates within the central government public authority classification. The procurement was conducted via a direct method, specifically below threshold without competition, and the contract was awarded to Matrix Chambers on 28th April 2025. The legal basis for the contract is grounded in UK legislation 2023/54, and the overall contract value amounts to GBP 68,480.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses specialising in educational services, particularly those with capabilities in delivering specialised training content. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs), like Matrix Chambers, which won the contract, are particularly well-placed to compete in such procurements, given that they can offer tailored training solutions. This contract not only enhances business profiles in the public education sector but also provides a platform to establish long-term relationships within government frameworks and potentially leverage these for future service-oriented projects.
