## Summary

The Department for Work & Pensions (DWP) has completed a procurement process for the "DWP Gold & Silver Commander Workshop," focusing on enhancing crisis leadership capabilities within the organisation. The project is categorised under "Staff training services" and falls within the services industry sector. The DWP, located in London, awarded the tender directly to Serco Limited, located in Hook, Hampshire, through a below-threshold procurement method without competition. The contract, with a gross value of £13,920, was signed on 3rd March 2025 and spans from 4th March 2025 to 1st April 2025, covering multiple regions across the United Kingdom, including London, the North East, the North West, and others.

This tender represents a significant business opportunity for companies specialising in staff training services, particularly those capable of delivering comprehensive professional development programmes for high-stress scenario management. Large organisations with robust training frameworks and experience in governmental contracts, like Serco Limited, are particularly well-suited for such opportunities. By engaging in such contracts, businesses can enhance their portfolio, gain significant exposure, and contribute to critical public sector functions, thereby potentially securing further governmental contracts in the future.

## Notice

The joint DWP Gold & Silver Commander Workshop supports a programme of continuous professional development, which will further enhance previous learning and development, expose Commanders to exercise scenarios and continue building the capability of both the Gold and Silver Commander cadres. Gold and Silver Commanders have a vital role in leading DWP's response to Medium, High and Crisis severity situations. The learning provided will continue to strengthen our crisis leadership capability to better protect DWP from significant threats and risks that could impact the Department. Processed by SSCL.
