## Summary

The Scottish Prison Service is seeking a training provider for its Modern Apprenticeship Programme in Engineering, scheduled to commence around August 2022. This programme will run from 2022 to 2028 and aims to train apprentices in maintenance engineering across various locations in Scotland, including Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Dundee. The procurement is at the award stage, with a contract valuing £159,170 already signed on 30 March 2022. This process followed an open procurement method and aims to deliver National Certificates and Scottish Vocational Qualifications to a total of 18 apprentices over the programme's duration.
