Summary of the contracting process

East Lindsey District Council is seeking a training provider specialising in construction and energy-efficiency skills to recruit and train a cohort of learners who live in East Lindsey District. The work is accredited training at National Qualifications Framework levels 1–2 or 1–3, inclusive, in one or more construction or energy-efficiency disciplines. This is a specialist training services contract, delivered for learners resident in East Lindsey. The council is the buyer; Public Sector Partnership Services is assisting with advertising the opportunity.

The council invited offers through an open competition. The enquiry deadline was 26 October 2026 at 17:00, and bids were due by 13 November 2026 at 15:00. The contract period is 2 December 2026 to 31 May 2028. The estimated value is £75,000 excluding VAT (£90,000 including VAT). There is one lot, with bids evaluated on quality (70%) and price (30%). Participation is reserved for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs); the lot is also identified as suitable for SMEs.

This opportunity suits a small or medium-sized training provider, or a VCSE, with the capability to recruit learners locally and deliver accredited construction and energy-efficiency training at the specified qualification levels. Providers should be able to offer training in one or more relevant disciplines and serve a cohort of East Lindsey residents over the contract period. The evaluation gives greater weight to quality than price, so providers able to demonstrate strong training delivery and learner recruitment are well placed to compete. The requirement is focused on specialist training rather than construction works or energy-efficiency installation.
