Planning Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) intends to commission a leadership development programme for its senior executive leaders. The contractor will design and build the programme, secure approval, then deliver it and evaluate its impact. Content is to be tailored to the CAA’s operating conditions and aligned with its values and Living Leadership Competencies. The purpose is to strengthen senior leaders’ ability to lead effectively and uphold the CAA’s reputation as a high-quality regulator amid changing political and economic conditions. The service is based in Crawley, West Sussex, with delivery locations also spanning parts of England including the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West.

This is at the planning stage: the CAA has stated its intention to procure, but no invitation to tender has been issued in this process. The buyer expects the next notice on 7 October 2026; this is an indicative publication date, not a bid deadline. The planned procurement is for one lot, covering programme design, build and approval, followed by delivery and evaluation. The service is expected to be sourced through the Government Commercial Agency’s RM6219 Learning and Training Services Dynamic Purchasing System. Suppliers must be approved members of that system to receive the future tender documents; it allows new suppliers to apply during its duration. A fee applies to documents. The planning information gives no contract value or award criteria.

This work is suited to leadership development and executive learning providers able to design and deliver a tailored programme for a senior leadership cohort, rather than suppliers offering only off-the-shelf training. Relevant strengths include diagnosing an organisation’s operating context, translating its values and competency framework into practical development, and evaluating outcomes after delivery. Suppliers should be prepared to support the full service cycle, from programme design and approval through facilitation and evaluation, and to work with senior executives in a regulatory organisation facing political and economic change. The CAA’s stated aim is to build leaders who lead with impact and sustain its reputation for high-quality regulation. To be considered when the tender is issued, providers will need to secure approval on the RM6219 Learning and Training Services DPS; joining that system is a prerequisite to receiving the tender documents. No particular qualifications or accreditations are stated.
