## Summary

North East Lincolnshire Council, located in Grimsby, United Kingdom, is the buying organisation inviting providers to participate in a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for Apprenticeships. This procurement process, primarily under the industry category of Education and training services, follows a selective, restricted procedure. The process has undergone multiple stages with the latest update on 21 July 2025, concerning amendments to the time limit for tender submissions, now set for 23 February 2029. This DPS is intended to compete all apprenticeships by inviting admitted providers to further competition, replacing the previous system that ended on 15 January 2022. The procurement is geared towards service provision and will continue operation until 31 January 2030, with current opportunities accessible through the YORtender portal.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in education and training services, particularly those adept in providing apprenticeship programmes. Providers listed on the Register of Apprenticeship Training Providers and equipped with the necessary accreditation for delivering relevant training would be well-positioned to benefit. The DPS encourages continuous engagement, allowing businesses to join over its lifetime and partake in subsequent competitions. It's an ideal platform for SMEs and larger organisations to secure contracts with the Council, as illustrated by previous engagements involving Impact Futures Training Limited, McArthur Dean Training Ltd, and others for varied apprenticeship levels including HR and data analytics. The procurement strategy is designed to foster a competitive environment, enhancing the quality and cost-effectiveness of services supplied to North East Lincolnshire Council.
