## Summary

The Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea has completed the procurement process for providing cycle training services as per the national cycle training programme, Bikeability. Classified under training services with the CPV code 80500000, this public contract is valued at £416,000. The service is to be delivered across the United Kingdom, focusing particularly on training both adults and schoolchildren within the borough. The contract was awarded on 22nd May 2025 to Cycling Instructor Ltd, following a limited procurement method due to business continuity considerations and specific timescale requirements. The procurement did not involve prior publication of a call for competition, in alignment with the directive's scope exceptions for urgent implementation needs.

This tender presents significant business growth potential for companies specialising in training services, particularly those offering cycle training and employing skilled instructors capable of handling bookings and quality control under the Bikeability scheme. The opportunity can be particularly advantageous for businesses that have experience in the education or sports sectors and who can manage service delivery with high standards of quality and compliance with national training benchmarks. Large companies with the capacity to allocate resources rapidly and maintain high levels of service could find this contract aligns well with their strategic objectives, offering both financial and reputational growth opportunities.

## Notice

The Council has been delivering cycle training to adults and school children continuously since 2006. The contract will be focused on delivering cycle training in line with the government's national cycle training programme, Bikeability. The Bikeability Trust manages course content, training standards, the education of trainers and the ongoing assessment of training providers.

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The Council has provided national standard accredited cycle training (Bikeability) to schools and to those who live, work or study in the borough continuously since 2006. The service has always been delivered by contractors as delivery by an in-house team would require significantly more management resources. The appointed Cycle Training provider is expected to handle bookings with schools and individuals, employment of staff, allocation of staff to bookings, quality control of delivery and staff accreditation within the Bikeability scheme structure.

### Procurement Information

Business Continuity and Compliance; timescales and an urgency to implement. The The LBWF Cycle Training and Associated Active Travel Services Framework follows the Council's procurement approach hierarchy, namely that frameworks meeting the Council's needs should be evaluated first and selected when feasible. The new contract would introduce advanced equipment, enhancing the Borough's ability to manage MTCs efficiently and effectively.
