## Summary

Hampshire County Council procured education and training services for one apprentice undertaking the Level 3 Heavy Vehicle Service and Maintenance Technician standard. The requirement covers training and supporting delivery of the apprentice’s occupational programme, focused on servicing and maintaining heavy vehicles. The work is associated with Winchester, Hampshire, and the service is classified under education and training services. This is a single-apprentice requirement rather than a large training cohort or a vehicle maintenance works contract. It is therefore relevant to further-education providers, apprenticeship training organisations and specialist technical training businesses able to deliver heavy-vehicle maintenance training. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises, alongside larger providers.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Hampshire County Council used a selective procedure, making a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender deadline was 10 June 2026 at 5pm, and the award was made on 10 June 2026. Paragon Education & Skills Group Limited was awarded the contract for £13,900, and the award is active. The contract runs from 11 June 2026 to 28 July 2027. The requirement was evaluated as a services procurement for one apprentice, with the Level 3 Heavy Vehicle Service and Maintenance Technician title defining the subject of the training. The award covers the full stated requirement and carries the reference 10004977.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates that Hampshire County Council purchases specialist apprenticeship provision for heavy-vehicle servicing and maintenance through a framework call-off route. A credible future competitor would need to be an apprenticeship or technical training provider able to support the complete Level 3 heavy-vehicle service and maintenance pathway for an individual learner, rather than simply supply workshop servicing. Relevant capability includes delivering structured occupational training, managing apprentice support and meeting the practical requirements of heavy-vehicle maintenance education. The requirement’s suitability for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises indicates that smaller specialist providers may be capable of competing alongside larger training organisations, provided they can offer the necessary technical delivery and learner support.
