Summary of the contracting process

Portsmouth City Council has recently completed a procurement process for designing and delivering five modules of procurement training. This tender, conducted using a direct procurement method below the competition threshold, falls under the services category and was awarded to TLT LLP. The procurement process was executed without competition and culminated in the signing of the contract on 10th March 2026. This contract, valued at £30,000, covers a period from 10th March 2026 to 9th September 2026, with training services to be provided within the region of UKJ31 in the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a unique opportunity for businesses specialising in training services to expand their offerings and gain a foothold in public sector contracts. It is particularly beneficial for those with expertise in developing and delivering structured training programmes. Large organisations with the capability to meet specific requirements promptly, as exemplified by TLT LLP, are well-suited to pursue future similar opportunities with sub-central government authorities such as Portsmouth City Council. Such engagements can lead to growth by enhancing reputation and networking capacity with key public sector entities.
