## Summary

The Department for Transport has concluded a tender process titled "Learning Development & Knowledge Pilot," focused on the research and development services sector. This procurement was specifically aimed at commissioning a pilot project in partnership with King's College London, which included the provision of two case studies. The contract, valued at £10,000, began on 4 April 2018 and will be active until 31 July 2018. The tender, which was executed through a direct procurement method via a single tender action underneath the financial threshold, marked the end of the tender period on 20 March 2018, with the award decision announced on 28 March 2018.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in research and development services, particularly those that can contribute to knowledge management and educational initiatives. Businesses that specialise in developing tailored training materials or those with expertise in case study research methodologies would be well-suited to compete for similar future contracts, especially within the public sector, where collaborative projects with academic institutions are increasingly valued. The combination of practical experience and innovative approaches in knowledge capture will be critical for success in this space.
