Summary of the contracting process

Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council procured training for its staff in the Triple P Parenting Programme. The purpose is to enable the council to deliver the programme in-house to families in the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole area, rather than commissioning the service externally. The requirement covers education and training services, with a related health and social work element. It supports an early-help or family wellbeing service and is linked to the Department for Education’s Early Breakthrough Initiative requirements under the council’s Birth to School Leaving grant. The work is for a public-sector authority and is intended to build internal capability to deliver parenting support locally.

This completed procurement was awarded through a below-threshold direct award without competition, under the light-touch regime. The contract was awarded to TRIPLE P UK LIMITED on 26 June 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The single requirement was awarded as one lot. The active contract runs from 26 June 2026 to 31 August 2026, with a gross value of £36,840. Evaluation was not competitive because the council used a direct award procedure. The selected supplier is an SME based in Edinburgh. The requirement was for training BCP Council staff, rather than for the council to commission ongoing external delivery of parenting sessions. The procurement is complete and the contract is active.

This procurement indicates demand from BCP Council for specialist providers able to train public-sector staff to deliver the Triple P Parenting Programme. Suppliers well placed for a future requirement would need recognised expertise in Triple P training, the ability to train council staff for subsequent in-house delivery, and experience supporting parenting, family wellbeing or early-help services. Credibility would also come from understanding the requirements attached to Department for Education grant-funded programmes and from delivering structured training suitable for a local authority workforce. The requirement favours a specialist education and training provider rather than a general training consultancy: relevant programme accreditation, qualified trainers, robust teaching materials and evidence of successful implementation with public or family services would strengthen a competitor’s position.
