UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Justice procured a bespoke prison waste management instructor training course. The service is designed to train instructors who support waste management activities in prisons, making this relevant to organisations with expertise in professional training, waste management education and the operational requirements of custodial environments. The buying organisation is the Ministry of Justice, a central government authority. The requirement concerns training services, classified under CPV 80500000. The procurement is associated with the Ministry of Justice rather than a local authority or individual prison, so suppliers would need to understand how to deliver a consistent training offer across the justice estate. The available data identifies the service and its prison setting, but does not identify individual delivery sites.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded through a direct, below-threshold procedure without competition. The Chartered Institution of Wastes Management was selected as the supplier and received the award on 8 August 2026. The contract was signed on 8 August 2026 and is active from 1 September 2026 to 31 July 2029. Its value is £54,000 excluding VAT, or £64,800 including VAT. There was one lot, covering the complete training requirement. The award was for services and the contract is below the applicable threshold. The recorded route was direct award without competition, rather than an open or selective tender. The procurement record does not set out separate scored evaluation criteria.

This procurement demonstrates a defined Ministry of Justice requirement for specialist training at the intersection of waste management and prison operations. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need practical waste management knowledge, the ability to design and deliver bespoke instructor training, and an understanding of how instructors operate in custodial settings. It would also need to provide a structured service suitable for a central government customer, with sufficient organisational capacity to maintain consistent delivery over a multi-year arrangement. The selected supplier, the Chartered Institution of Wastes Management, is a large organisation, indicating that established sector expertise and delivery infrastructure may be relevant. Providers whose strength is only generic training, without waste management and prison-environment capability, are less closely aligned.
