Summary of the contracting process

North Northamptonshire Council procured education and training services for the delivery of up to six Level 4 Data Analyst apprenticeships. The programme is intended to develop apprentices’ data analysis skills through structured apprenticeship training, with the training funded through the council’s apprenticeship levy. The buyer is North Northamptonshire Council, based at The Corby Cube in Corby. Delivery is in the UK, with the awarded supplier based in Chelmsford. The requirement sits within the public-sector light-touch services regime and is specifically focused on Level 4 data analyst apprenticeship provision, rather than general recruitment, consultancy or standalone data analysis services. It is therefore relevant to universities, colleges and specialist apprenticeship training providers able to deliver this level and subject area.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was awarded to Anglia Ruskin University for an active contract. The award date and contract signing date were 22 July 2026. The contract runs from 22 July 2026 to 5 July 2030. Its gross and stated value is £90,000, covering up to six apprenticeships at a maximum cost of £15,000 per apprentice. The contract is fully funded through the apprenticeship levy. The procurement used a limited method under the light-touch regime. The published outcome identifies Anglia Ruskin University as the selected supplier for the Level 4 Data Analyst Apprenticeship requirement.

This award demonstrates established demand from North Northamptonshire Council for specialist Level 4 data analyst apprenticeship training delivered through the apprenticeship levy. Competitors would need to provide a recognised apprenticeship training offer focused on data analysis, with the capacity to support several apprentices through a multi-year programme. A credible supplier is likely to be an established university, college or specialist training provider with suitable teaching staff, curriculum and learner-support arrangements. Relevant capability includes delivering structured Level 4 apprenticeship training, managing levy-funded provision and sustaining delivery over the full programme. Providers tracking this buyer should use the requirement’s defined subject, qualification level and delivery model to assess whether their education and training services are suitably aligned.
