## Summary

The Ministry of Justice commissioned rail training for prisoners at HMP Highpoint. The service is an NSAR-approved course, formerly accredited by the National Skills Academy for Rail, and includes a guaranteed offer of employment for participants on release. This is a specialist education and training service connecting rail-sector skills development with employment outcomes for people leaving prison. The recorded delivery location is London, United Kingdom. The buyer is the Ministry of Justice, and the requirement is specifically for training at HMP Highpoint rather than general prison education or rail training across multiple sites.

The procurement is complete and Intertrain UK Ltd was selected for the contract. The award was made on 12 October 2026. The contract value is £36,683, with delivery from 4 January to 31 March 2027. The requirement was procured as a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, using a selective process. The call-off was from the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System and concerns one defined requirement at HMP Highpoint. The tender closing deadline was 25 September 2026. The procurement data identifies the course’s NSAR approval and guaranteed employment offer on release as core delivery features; it does not describe a separate scored evaluation formula.

This award demonstrates demand from the Ministry of Justice for focused rail-sector training within a prison, tied to a credible route into employment after release. Suppliers well placed to compete for a comparable requirement would need to deliver NSAR-approved rail courses and secure or provide a guaranteed employment offer for participants on release. They would also need the operational capability to deliver training in a custodial setting and experience aligning vocational learning with employment outcomes. The call-off route through the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System is relevant to suppliers seeking this specific type of prison education work. The selected supplier is an SME, showing that a provider of this scale has delivered the requirement; the recorded SME and VCSE suitability also indicates that both types of organisation were considered suitable to participate.
