UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Tamworth Borough Council is seeking a training provider to help it meet the Government’s Competence and Conduct Standard for social housing, incorporated into the Regulator of Social Housing’s Regulatory Framework. The work is education and training services for the council. Delivery is specified across the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West of England. This is a single requirement for a provider to support the council’s compliance with the standard.

The council invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The tender deadline was 29 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC; enquiries were due by 26 October 2026 at 12:00 UTC. The contract period runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029. The estimated value is £50,000 excluding VAT (£62,500 including VAT). Evaluation gives 50% to price, 45% to quality and 5% to social value, with four quality questions. The procurement is divided into one lot and is identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.

This opportunity suits training providers with relevant social housing expertise and the qualifications and experience to support a local authority in meeting the Competence and Conduct Standard. Suppliers should be able to deliver training across the specified English regions and address the standard’s requirements as part of the Regulator of Social Housing’s framework. Quality carries nearly as much evaluation weight as price, so providers should be prepared to demonstrate the strength and relevance of their proposed training, alongside their ability to deliver social value. The single-lot scope is suitable for an SME, as expressly indicated in the procurement.
