## Summary

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), based in London, has concluded a procurement process for the delivery of Level 4 Applications Support Lead ST0949 training to its employees. The contract, under the CPV category "Staff training services", spans across England despite an initial technical issue showing SW1H 9NA as the delivery postcode. This award, funded from the Framework RM6102, demonstrates a selective procurement method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The contract, awarded to Velocity 1st Limited on 17th April 2026, will commence on 20th April 2026 and extend to 19th October 2029, with the award notice published on 22nd April 2026. The tender phase concluded on 13th March 2026.

This procurement opportunity offers substantial business growth potential for enterprises specialising in staff training and development services, particularly those equipped to deliver level-specific application support training. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to engage, given their suitability criteria laid out by DWP, though voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are not specified as suitable. This contract, valued at £170,000, provides a strategic opportunity for training providers to enhance their portfolio, particularly if they are capable of delivering bespoke training solutions across the designated regions of England.
