UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Forestry Commission procured incident management training services. The requirement covers delivering training, developing and updating training materials, and providing instructors and supporting resources. The supplier is also responsible for marking and the relevant administration for Lanta-accredited Incident Management training modules. This is a public-sector professional training and course-administration requirement rather than a construction, forestry operations or equipment supply contract. The buying organisation is the Forestry Commission, a sub-central public authority. The work is associated with the Commission’s training needs, while the procurement record does not identify a separate delivery location. The scope may suit providers that can combine instructional delivery, course-material production, assessment, marking and administrative support within one managed service.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold procedure, with the specific method recorded as unknown. It was a single-lot requirement. Bowers Risk and Resilience Ltd was awarded the contract on 30 June 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract runs from 30 June 2026 to 31 March 2028. Its value is £140,000 excluding VAT, or £168,000 including VAT. The award and contract are active. The procurement was categorised as training services. The published outcome identifies the selected supplier and confirms that the contract covers the completed tender requirement; it does not set out award weightings, eligibility conditions or a separate evaluation formula.

This award indicates demand from the Forestry Commission for a specialist provider able to deliver incident management training as an end-to-end service. A credible competitor would need instructors with relevant operational and teaching capability, the capacity to deliver Lanta-accredited Incident Management modules, and the systems to manage course resources, learner administration, marking and associated records. It would also need to maintain and update training materials rather than simply deliver a fixed course. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a focused specialist rather than only a large training group. Providers should therefore be able to demonstrate dependable delivery capacity, quality-controlled assessment and experience managing accredited training programmes for a public-sector client.
