This contract, finalised on the 27th of March 2026 and running until the 31st of March 2026, engages the Impact Investing Institute as the supplier to develop a training programme tailored for Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) investment professionals. The procurement method was direct, under the threshold without competition, emphasising a streamlined approach for urgent or specialised services.
