## Summary

The procurement process for the 2-day EIA Overview Foundation Level 1 course, 3-day ANB Standard Foundation Level 1 course, and 5-day Designer course was completed by Shared Services Connected Limited. The procurement method used was a direct single tender action (below threshold). The courses fall under the Education and training services category and have a total contract value of £136,000. The contract period started on June 30, 2023, and will end on June 29, 2024.

This tender created opportunities for Shortest Path Training Ltd, which was awarded the contract worth £135,000. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) such as Shortest Path Training Ltd can benefit from this type of procurement. Businesses providing education and training services, especially in the United Kingdom, would be well-suited to compete for similar opportunities in the future.

## Notice

The preference is for the training courses to be delivered face to face to maximum of 10 delegates (maximum of 5 delegates for the Testers training) in DWP office locations. Locations are to be confirmed, however likely to be London, Birmingham, Cardiff, Ilkeston, Liverpool, Newcastle, Harrogate or Glasgow. Learning provider to supply delegates with laptops for the training (trainer would normally bring the laptops with them). This is due to DWP policy and firewalls preventing access to the external learning package using DWP equipment. If to be held virtual, the learning must be delivered via MS teams to a maximum of 8 delegates. Learning provider would need to still supply laptops at DWP offices which would incur additional shipping costs (locations to be confirmed) We have 65 staff who require the 2-day EIA Overview Foundation Level 1 course. We have 39 staff who require the 3-day ANB Standard Foundation Level 1 course. We also require 2 existing staff to undertake a Designer Course, plus 2 additional staff as part of our longer-term succession planning so they can make any amendments to the system now
