## Summary

The Ministry of Justice procured construction training courses for prisoners at HMP Doncaster. The provider is expected to deliver a flexible curriculum responsive to construction-sector needs locally and nationally, working with the prison’s employment lead to identify job opportunities, establish relevant qualifications and prepare learners for employment after release. This is education and training services, focused specifically on construction skills and routes into work for people leaving prison. Delivery is at HMP Doncaster in Doncaster. The requirement combines course delivery with curriculum development and coordination with prison employment staff, linking training content to real labour-market demand and suitable qualifications.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Engage Train Support Ltd. The Ministry of Justice used a selective call-off from its Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System. The award was made on 1 October 2026, following a submission deadline of 31 July 2026. The awarded contract value is £67,370. The contract runs from 2 November 2026 to 1 June 2027. The published information describes the expected delivery and employment-preparation approach, but does not set out separate lots or a specific scoring formula. Small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises were considered suitable for this requirement.

For suppliers competing when this HMP Doncaster requirement returns, the award demonstrates demand for prison-based construction training that connects qualifications to employment opportunities after release. A credible provider would need to deliver adaptable construction courses, keep the curriculum aligned with changing local and national sector requirements, and work closely with prison employment staff to identify vacancies and training needs. The service is more than classroom instruction: it must prepare learners for a practical transition into work on release. The Ministry of Justice used a call-off through its Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System, so relevant experience in prison education and the ability to operate through that route would be valuable. The procurement identifies SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises as suitable competitors.」} elided? Wait format must valid JSON; I accidentally include closing weird quote?
