UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

East Riding of Yorkshire Council contracted for adult education and training services: delivery of Free Courses for Jobs qualifications for learners aged 19 and over. The courses are intended to help adults gain skills and qualifications to progress in employment, move into new careers and meet changing labour-market needs. Delivery is across the East Riding of Yorkshire. The work is a single service requirement focused on providing these qualifications, rather than a supply of goods or construction work.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. The council used a below-threshold limited competition. Back to Work Training Limited was awarded the contract. The contract was signed on 28 September 2026, with a period from 29 September 2026 to 31 July 2027. Its value is £94,868.40 excluding VAT (£113,842.08 including VAT). The procurement was not divided into separate lots. The published process details do not state the evaluation criteria or supplier eligibility conditions.

For providers of adult learning, this contract demonstrates East Riding of Yorkshire Council’s demand for delivery of Free Courses for Jobs qualifications to people aged 19 and over. A credible competitor would need to deliver relevant qualifications and adult learning across the East Riding, and show how provision develops learners’ skills and supports progression into employment or new careers while responding to labour-market needs. The council awarded the work through a limited competition below the procurement threshold, so suppliers seeking similar work should be equipped to compete through that route. The selected provider is a small and medium-sized enterprise, showing that a provider of this scale has undertaken the requirement; the award does not establish that the work is restricted to SMEs.
