Located in Kings Langley, UK, ECITB oversees the development of skills and standards in the engineering construction industry. The contract, valued at £797,703, was awarded to 20/20 Business Insight Limited from Edinburgh. The procurement was an open procedure leading to the award on 1 June 2026, with the contract period starting from 30 April 2026 to 31 March 2029, with potential extensions for up to five years. The main category of the procurement was services related to education and training, and it had previously been through stages of planning and tendering with active engagements and market insights. The ACTIVE Cup Project Simulation involves delivering a behavioural project management competition for the engineering construction industry, designed to promote collaboration and practical skills in a competitive environment. This opens avenues for growth for businesses primarily involved in education and training services, particularly those with capabilities for delivering engaging and interactive learning experiences. SMEs specializing in project management training stand well to benefit as potential suppliers, given their suitability criteria and the engagement patterns set by such procurement processes. The project aims for long-term partnerships, providing a sustainable business growth platform for those capable of influencing workforce development in an industry crucial to national infrastructure. ## Notice The ECITB is looking to procure a Supplier for a 3 year agreement (with two (2) optional one (1) year extensions), to develop and deliver the ECITB's ACTIVE Cup. The ACTIVE Cup is a project management competition for the engineering construction industry, originally designed with reinforcing the ACTIVE principles at its core.
