Summary of the contracting process

The Bank of England procured ad-hoc training services for its staff. The requirement covers education and training services, delivered across the United Kingdom. The work is a service rather than the supply of goods or construction works, and is intended to support the Bank’s workforce through training arranged as needed. The contracting authority is the Bank of England, a central government public authority based in London. The procurement was organised as a single requirement, with the selected supplier responsible for delivering the training service associated with it. This opportunity is therefore relevant to organisations providing flexible staff training, learning and development services for a public-sector workforce.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It was a below-threshold procurement using a tender process, with one completed lot. Development Dimensions International (U.K.) Limited was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 13 May 2026 and runs from 13 May 2026 to 12 May 2028, with a possible 12-month extension to 13 May 2029. Its value is £79,560 excluding VAT and £95,472 including VAT. The contract is active and the award is active. The published information identifies training services as the procured category. The procurement was evaluated through the buyer’s tender process; specific award criteria are not stated in the available procurement information.

This procurement demonstrates demand from the Bank of England for externally provided, ad-hoc staff training delivered at organisational scale. Suppliers well placed for similar work would be established learning and development providers able to respond to varied training requirements, manage delivery for a central government workforce and provide a reliable service across the United Kingdom. Credibility would come from demonstrable experience delivering professional training to large or complex organisations, strong programme coordination and the capacity to supply trainers or learning resources when required. Providers competing for a future requirement of this type would need to show consistent service quality, operational resilience and an understanding of public-sector delivery expectations.
