## Summary

The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) procured a Level 5 Digital Learning Specialist apprenticeship. This is an education and training service for developing digital learning expertise at advanced apprenticeship level, rather than the supply of software or general IT services. The requirement is classified under education and training services. Delivery may take place across the United Kingdom, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, Europe, British Overseas Territories and the rest of the world, so providers need to support learners and the buyer across a broad geographical footprint. The buying organisation is DVSA, the UK agency responsible for driver and vehicle standards. The requirement is categorised as a service and concerns one apprenticeship provision.

This procurement has been awarded following a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The award was made to LDN Apprenticeships Ltd on 9 September 2026 for £80,000. The resulting contract is scheduled to run from 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2029. The tender submission deadline was 9 September 2026 at 09:57. The process is complete, and the selected supplier is identified as LDN Apprenticeships Ltd. The opportunity was not reserved for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The procurement concerns a single Level 5 Digital Learning Specialist apprenticeship requirement, with the call-off route determining how suppliers were invited to participate.

For a supplier assessing future work with DVSA, this award demonstrates demand for advanced digital learning apprenticeship delivery over a multi-year service period. A credible competitor would need to deliver a Level 5 Digital Learning Specialist apprenticeship, with the educational expertise, curriculum design and learner-support capability needed to develop specialist digital learning skills. The requirement suits an established apprenticeship or training provider able to manage delivery for a large public body and operate across the United Kingdom and associated overseas or European locations. The award to a large provider, together with the stated lack of SME and VCSE suitability, indicates that scale, organisational capacity and dependable programme management are important commercial considerations when presenting a future offer for this buyer’s requirement.
