## Summary

Caerphilly County Borough Council is actively managing a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for training providers, focusing on the provision of various training services for both council employees and residents. The process is ongoing, with continuous applications invited for new providers to join. The procurement is classified under "Education and training services" and includes diverse sectors such as construction, care, green skills, and IT. The DPS, initiated on 13th January 2025, is set to be active for an initial duration of five years with the possibility of extension. The procurement stage is currently "active", indicating that the process is ongoing and applications are welcome. The procurement method adopted is selective, under a restricted procedure, with submissions primarily handled electronically via the Proactis Supplier Portal.

This tender provides significant growth avenues for businesses that deliver training and educational services, especially small and medium-sized enterprises given the current width of categories covered by the DPS. The council has expressed interest in encompassing broad and specialised educational services, thereby presenting substantial opportunities for specialised training providers, vocational trainers, and organisations that align with the local labour market trends. Entities that can offer technical and vocational qualifications or want to participate in community-driven projects can benefit from joining this DPS and expanding their operations within the boundaries of Caerphilly County.
