This procurement falls under the education and training services category (CPV code 80000000) and takes place within the regions of London and the South East, United Kingdom. The procurement followed a selective method, specifically a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, with the value of the contract at £59,755.

This tender presents an opportunity for SMEs and businesses involved in the provision of training and education services, as it highlights the growing demand for vocational training within the correctional system.

This contract creates avenues for similar service providers to engage with future procurement opportunities, contributing to business growth by establishing a foothold in the public education and vocational training sector.
