## Summary

The City of Liverpool College has concluded an award process through a mini competition for the delivery of the devolved Adult Skills Fund within the Liverpool City Region. The contracting process falls under the category of Education and Training Services, identified by the CPV code 80000000. The procurement method used was a selective approach, specifically applying a Restricted procedure via a Dynamic Purchasing System. Key dates included the bid submission deadline on 13th June 2025, with the contract commencing on 1st August 2025 and lasting until 31st July 2026. The College, based in Liverpool, employed a competitive approach to source suitable providers for this initiative.

This procurement presents notable business growth opportunities for training organisations specialising in educational services. Businesses equipped to deliver effective skills training and who can operate across diverse geographical areas such as the British Oversea Territories, Channel Islands, and United Kingdom would benefit most. The project is well-suited for established training institutions with a capacity to handle large-scale projects, as small and medium enterprises were not the target audience for this opportunity. Successful organisations include Bright Direction Training, FTW Training, Orangebox Training Solutions, Sysco Business Skills Academy Ltd, and Three Dimensional Training, who have been awarded contracts totalling £111,216. These organisations will play a crucial role in implementing the educational enhancements envisioned by The City of Liverpool College.
