## Summary

The Ministry of Justice commissioned prisoner education and training at HMP Bure, in the East of England. The work covers practical roofing and related employability courses: pitched roofing, liquid-applied flat roofing, working at heights, asbestos awareness, green initiatives and net zero. It is a focused training service for prisoners, combining trade skills with safety awareness, environmental content and preparation for employment. The requirement was procured as a call-off from the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System, rather than as a standalone general education programme. The named delivery location is HMP Bure; the procurement describes the service as training for prisoners at that prison.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. The Ministry of Justice selected GLA Group Ltd, an SME, for a contract worth £28,930. The award was made on 27 August 2026. The contract period runs from 5 to 23 October 2026. The tender submission deadline was 3 June 2026. The route was a selective call-off from a dynamic purchasing system. The stated estimated tender value was also £28,930. The requirement was presented as a single service package covering all listed training courses, with no lot divisions recorded. SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises were identified as suitable. No evaluation criteria are published in the procurement details.

For suppliers considering comparable prison education work for the Ministry of Justice, this award shows demand for short, practical vocational training that combines roofing skills, safety topics, environmental awareness and employability. A credible competitor would need to deliver the full mix of courses, including pitched and liquid flat roofing, working at heights and asbestos awareness, alongside green initiatives and net-zero learning. Experience in vocational education and training, and the ability to teach trade-specific content safely to prisoners in a prison setting, would be relevant capabilities. The call-off route indicates that suppliers need to be positioned to compete through the Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System. The selected provider is an SME, and the opportunity was marked suitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises, indicating scope for providers of that scale. Only the stated range of courses is evidenced here; no particular accreditation or capacity requirement is identified.
