## Summary

The Ministry of Justice is initiating a procurement process titled "Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System" (PEDPS), classified under the education and training services industry category. This process is currently in the planning stage, with an engagement end date set for 31 March 2023. The PEDPS, which commenced in November 2018, aims to allow new suppliers to participate in call-off competitions, with contracts potentially lasting up to two years starting from 1 February 2020. Interested businesses can register their interest through the appropriate channels to join the system.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to expand their services within the prison education sector. By participating in this Dynamic Purchasing System, providers can engage in competitions for contracts aimed at enhancing educational offerings for inmates. Businesses that specialise in educational services, training programmes, or digital learning solutions would be particularly well-suited to compete for these contracts.
