## Summary

Oxford Brookes University has concluded an extension of their ongoing contractual agreement with Skills for Health for the delivery of Food Hygiene Level 2 training. The procurement process, classified under the Safety Training Services category (CPV 80550000), focuses on providing necessary certification for students enrolled in a new dietary course. This procurement, based on an award without prior publication of a call for competition, ensures continuity and eases the administrative process for students. The process falls under the limited procurement method. The contracting process involved, completed in November 2024, took place within the Oxfordshire region (UKJ14), ensuring a timely expansion of the existing services to include the new training requirements within the current academic year.

This tender extension presents an ongoing opportunity for Skills for Health to fortify its relationship with Oxford Brookes University. Businesses specialising in e-learning and training services, particularly within the healthcare and dietary sectors, would find such contracts beneficial for growth and stability. Providing consistent and specialised training services ensures prolonged engagement and potential for future similar projects. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) offering comparable services could benefit from exploring cooperation or subcontracting opportunities to support the extended service range, as evident in this efficient use of an active contract to address urgent training needs without the complications of engaging new bidders.
