## Summary

The Department for Education has awarded a contract under the title "Skills Bootcamps DPS : Transport and Logistics : Second call off competition" in the services industry. The contract has a value of £74,743,950.63 and was awarded on December 1, 2023. The procurement method used was a selective process through a dynamic purchasing system. The contract period is from February 1, 2024, to January 31, 2026, and the tender period ended on July 28, 2023. The buying organisation is the Department for Education, located in London. This tender presents opportunities for businesses to provide education and training services related to transport and logistics, creating potential for growth for large-scale suppliers with expertise in the field.

Businesses specialising in education and training services, particularly in the transport and logistics sector, are well-suited to compete in this tender for Skills Bootcamps. Eligible adult learners can access level 3 - 5 equivalent courses for up to 16 weeks, supporting them in gaining in-demand skills and opportunities for employment. The contract envisions active involvement from employers in the delivery of Skills Bootcamps, offering a chance for suppliers to collaborate with organisations looking to upskill their workforce or fill vacancies in the industry. With a focus on sector-specific skills development, this contract aims to bridge the gap between employers and prospective employees, creating a pathway for sustainable job growth and skill development within the sector.

## Notice

Skills Bootcamps offer flexible, primarily level 3 - 5 equivalent courses of up to 16 weeks in technical skills which are free to eligible adult learners. They give adults the opportunity to build up in-demand, sector-specific skills and fast-track to an interview with an employer - supporting adults to move into well-paid jobs and helping employers to fill much-needed vacancies. Unemployed, employed and self-employed adults can be eligible for a Skills Bootcamp; they can be used to support an unemployed person into a job, an employed adult into a different job in another organisation or to gain another role or other responsibilities in the same organisation, or a self-employed adult to gain new opportunities. They also support groups such as those returning to work after a break, ex-veterans and eligible prisoners within 6 months of release. There is a clear expectation that employers are involved in the whole end-to-end delivery of Skills Bootcamps; and where an employer is using a Skills Bootcamp to train up a current employee, they must contribute towards the costs of the Skills Bootcamp. The Dynamic Purchasing System was launched in November 2022. This Contract Award Notice is for the contracts awarded under the Transport and Logistics category.
