The West Yorkshire Combined Authority is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process entitled "*PIN ONLY* Local Construction Training" within the education and training services category.

Key details note that the procurement value is set at £2,000,000, and interested suppliers must be part of the WYCA 79437 Adult Skills DPS to participate. The tender communication is expected to be announced on 7th July 2025, following which potential bidders can access further details. This process is currently classified under the services procurement category and will take place in the UK.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in education and training services, particularly those with expertise in green construction and technical skills development.

It is an ideal opening for organisations aiming to broaden their service offerings in the green energy and construction training sectors. By being involved in a programme backed by a regional authority such as the West Yorkshire Combined Authority, businesses have the potential to secure long-term collaborations and contribute to meeting the region's ambitious target of creating 60,000 skilled construction jobs.
