Summary of the contracting process

The Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime is inviting suppliers to participate in the procurement process for a project titled "Child First Training." This initiative focuses on the development and delivery of a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) offer for Metropolitan Police officers, designed to complement existing training programs. The procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with a future notice expected to be published by 15th June 2026. The project falls under the category of education and training services, and it is associated with the light-touch procurement regime. The contract is set to commence on 1st October 2026 and conclude by 31st March 2028, with services to be delivered in the UK, specifically within the London region (UKI). The estimated gross value of the contract is £750,000.

This procurement process offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational and training services, particularly those interested in providing tailored CPD programs for law enforcement personnel. The tender is well-suited for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), given its emphasis on child-centric training methodologies. Participating in this project can facilitate growth for companies by establishing a foothold in public sector contracts, expanding their portfolio, and creating long-lasting contributions to training initiatives within the Metropolitan Police. The project's alignment with government priorities may also position businesses to further explore partnerships with public authorities.
