## Summary

The Waste & Resources Action Programme (WRAP), located in Banbury, UK, has completed a procurement process for the renewal of its LinkedIn Learning platform, a critical resource for staff development and training. Categorised under personal development training services, this direct award contract was influenced by the need for service continuity, with LinkedIn Technology UK Ltd chosen due to their existing integration and comprehensive content library that supports WRAP's organisational needs. The contract, valued at £25,000, is scheduled to commence on 15th December 2025 and will run until the end of December 2026, ensuring uninterrupted access to this essential training tool.

This contract represents significant opportunities for businesses involved in e-learning platforms, particularly those capable of providing integrated, comprehensive content that aligns with organisational development goals. While the current procurement was made directly to ensure continuity, businesses with solutions that offer similar integration capabilities and expansive training content may position themselves as attractive alternatives for future tenders. Large-scale providers with proven track records in system integration, content breadth, and cost-effectiveness are particularly well-suited to compete for similar contracts in this evolving field.

## Notice

WRAP uses LinkedIn Learning as its organisation-wide digital learning platform, supporting staff development, mandatory training, leadership skills, and specialist upskilling. It has become embedded in WRAP's learning and development offer and is relied upon by teams across the organisation. To maintain continuity and avoid service disruption, renewal is required from the current subscription end date.

### Procurement Information

A Direct Award is proposed based on continuity of service as staff are actively using the platform and shifting to an alternative provider would cause disruption to current learning pathways and mandatory learning content. The proven uptake and organisational fit as LinkedIn Learning offers a strong breadth of content that aligns with WRAP's capability needs, including leadership, digital skills, project management, wellbeing, and specialist soft skills. There are also cost efficiency considerations in that the PS25k annual fee provides unrestricted organisational access and benchmarks favourably against alternatives offering equivalent content libraries, licensing arrangements, or integration capabilities. Lastly, regarding system integration, LinkedIn Learning is already integrated with WRAP's internal systems and processes. Moving to a new provider would incur additional time, onboarding effort, and technical integration costs. A full competitive procurement exercise is not feasible at this time due to limited internal resource and capacity to scope, run and evaluate an e-learning platform procurement, time sensitivity, as renewal is required imminently to prevent loss of access, as well as a high change burden, as transitioning platforms would require significant staff retraining and migration planning. Given these constraints, a Direct Award for a single 12-month term is proportionate and ensures continuity while allowing sufficient time to review future long-term options.
