## Summary

The Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), a sub-central government public authority based in Peterborough, United Kingdom, has completed the contracting process for its Homebuilding Access Training programme. This initiative aims to deliver a 4 to 6-week training programme for new entrants and existing labourers in priority homebuilding occupations, including Groundworks, Brickwork, Drylining, and Timber Frame Erection by the end of the 3rd month of the contract. The procurement was conducted through a limited competition process below threshold level and has recently reached the award stage, with a contract awarded to Chesterfield College. The contract, worth £87,000 gross, is set to run from 18th September 2025 to 17th January 2026, with bids received by three finalists at the final stage, including two Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).

This tender presents significant opportunities for growth, particularly within the education and training services sector. Businesses with experience in designing and delivering industry-specific training programmes, especially those focused on construction and homebuilding skills, would be well-suited to compete in similar procurements. The successful bidder, Chesterfield College, a large-scale training provider, demonstrates the potential for institutions with comprehensive educational capabilities to expand their offerings in specialised vocational training. This could pave the way for other training organisations to leverage their expertise and infrastructure to secure government contracts designed to address critical skills shortages in the construction industry.
