Summary of the contracting process

The London Borough of Havering procured cycle training and cycle skills services within the borough, covering Bikeability and related cycle training for schools, adults and other residents. The service includes training across multiple levels, provision for all special educational needs schools in the borough, and monitoring of training delivered through hubs. The main work is safety and health-and-safety training. Havering is the buyer and the delivery area is its borough, centred on Romford and the surrounding London Borough of Havering. The requirement is a public service programme rather than the supply of equipment: suppliers need to organise and deliver training, manage customer-facing activity and provide regular performance information.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through an open procedure. One lot was used and was suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. Evaluation was based on price weighted at 70% and quality at 30%; economic and technical selection requirements were covered in the pre-selection questionnaire. One bid was received, from Cycle Confident. The award was made on 18 June 2026 to Cycle Confident for £600,000 excluding VAT, or £720,000 including VAT. The contract was signed on 13 August 2026 and runs from 13 August 2026 to 31 March 2029. The award record also gives a service period of 31 August 2026 to 31 March 2029. Payment terms are 30 days.

This requirement indicates demand for an established cycle-training provider able to deliver structured Bikeability and cycle-skills programmes at borough scale. A credible future competitor would need the capacity to train children across Levels 1, 2 and 3, provide adult training, and extend provision to all special educational needs schools in the area. Operational strength matters: the contract requires monthly reporting, quarterly monitoring of hub activity, forward school-booking information and prompt handling of complaints. Suppliers should be able to manage customer feedback, maintain high service standards and operate with tight cost control. The buyer also expects strong outcomes, including high budget utilisation, positive customer feedback and zero accidents or serious incidents. Evidence-backed quality responses and robust delivery methods would be important alongside competitive pricing.
