## Summary

The Police and Crime Commissioner for Derbyshire is embarking on a procurement process titled "Training School Sponsorship", which falls under the industry category of works and services. This initiative, currently in the planning stage, seeks to explore sponsorship options for upgrading the Derbyshire Constabulary's training school building located at Force Headquarters, Butterly Hall, Ripley DE5 3RS. Potential sponsors are invited to engage with the preliminary market engagement notice by 15 August 2025. The process is initiated through a Request for Information (RFI) to gain insights into viable sponsorship opportunities that could support this project, aiming for a future notice date on 31 October 2025.

This procurement represents a significant growth opportunity for businesses specialising in construction, repair, and maintenance services. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to participate, suggesting the suitability of the contract structure for diverse business types. Those involved in construction structures, building installations, or providing miscellaneous repair services may find this tender particularly advantageous. Involvement in this project could offer strategic visibility and long-term engagement through potential contract renewals stretching until 2028, reinforcing a business's presence within the public sector domain.

## Notice

Derbyshire Constabulary is currently looking into the available sponsorship options for the upgrade of its training school building, which is located at Force Headquarters, Butterly Hall, Ripley DE5 3RS. The training school is at the heart of Derbyshire Constabulary and is where all budding police officers begin their journey into policing Derbyshire. This would be an exciting opportunity for the right sponsor which would help secure our future policing potential within Derbyshire. The force is keen to understand how you could support through a sponsorship opportunity the upgrade to its current training school building. The force would look to recognise this investment with an official opening and installation of a plaque to recognise the investment made by the sponsor. With the rising demand for policing and static budget settlements, the gap in affordability is increasing to deliver services to the communities of Derbyshire and it is often the Estates budget that is deferred when funding decisions are made. However, the demand to train recruits and deliver important services to the Derbyshire Community continues. The Force are seeking advice as to what sponsorship options available for a project of this nature. We are reaching out with this Request for Information [RFI] to understand viable options.
