Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the employment skills service, titled "FW_704_0270 Employment skills," was conducted by the Forestry Commission, based in Edinburgh, UK. This open tender falls within the environmental protection industry category and has recently completed the award stage. The contract was signed on 17 April 2017, with a total value of £69,927. This process involved a call-off from Framework AR02/1/15/16, allowing the buyer to procure the necessary services efficiently.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses focused on community and environmental skills development, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can deliver such services. With only one bid submitted, the competition was limited, indicating a potential gap for other providers to engage in future procurements by the Forestry Commission or similar bodies. Companies offering training, skill development, or community engagement services may find this a valuable area for growth.
