## Summary

The Ministry of Justice commissioned practical scaffolding training for prisoners at HMP Brinsford. The courses are intended to equip participants with skills to seek employment with a scaffolding construction company after release. This is vocational education and training, focused on scaffolding rather than general prison education. Delivery is at HMP Brinsford; the procurement data also identifies the East Midlands and West Midlands as delivery areas. The requirement is a service, not the supply of scaffolding materials or construction work. It is relevant to training providers able to deliver hands-on scaffolding instruction in a prison setting and support progression towards employment in the scaffolding trade.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. The Ministry of Justice awarded the contract to Fulcrum Scaffold Safety and Training on 22 September 2026. The awarded value is £19,000. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The requirement was competed as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system for prison education, using a selective procedure. The original tender deadline was 2 September 2026 at 3pm. The opportunity was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community and social enterprises. No lot breakdown or separate evaluation criteria are recorded in the procurement details.

This award demonstrates a specific requirement from the Ministry of Justice for practical scaffolding training for prisoners at HMP Brinsford, linked to employment prospects after release. A credible competitor when this requirement next comes to market would need to deliver safe, hands-on scaffolding instruction in a prison environment and connect course outcomes to work in scaffolding construction. The selected supplier’s business is specifically focused on scaffold safety and training, indicating the relevance of trade-specific instructional capability. Providers should be able to operate within a prison setting and deliver a focused service at modest scale. The call-off route also shows that relevant suppliers need to be positioned to compete through the prison education dynamic purchasing system.
