UK5 - Transparency Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is buying additional Productivity Ninja training seminars for its staff. The requirement is to provide the same training sessions previously delivered by Think Productive Ltd, so that new CPS staff can receive consistent training. The procurement is for training services, rather than goods or works. The CPS is the buying organisation; the data identifies the buyer’s London address but does not state where the sessions will be delivered. The training is a specific continuation of an existing staff development requirement, rather than a broader programme of unrelated training.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Think Productive Ltd by direct award, on the stated basis that the supplier had previously delivered the distinctive training and new staff needed the same sessions. The award is recorded as pending. The awarded value is £15,420 excluding VAT (£18,504 including VAT). The contract period runs from 5 November 2026 to 31 March 2027, and the scheduled signature date is 14 October 2026. There was one lot, covering the training requirement. The lot was marked suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises. The published information does not describe an evaluation method or additional eligibility requirements.

For suppliers considering a comparable future requirement from the CPS, the evidence points to demand for consistent Productivity Ninja training for newly appointed staff, delivered in the same format as existing sessions. A credible competitor would need to demonstrate capability to deliver this specific training and to replicate the established sessions reliably for an additional staff cohort. The CPS used a direct award because the requirement was for further work from the previous provider and the sessions were described as unique to that supplier. This indicates that continuity and familiarity with the existing training approach were central to the selection in this procurement. The lot was considered suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, so those types of organisations may be relevant where they can meet the training requirement.
