## Summary

The University of Birmingham, a public authority under sub-central government, has completed the procurement process for the "MTC Training" project, aimed to develop The Level 6 Manufacturing Engineer apprenticeship. The procurement took place in Birmingham, United Kingdom, within the education and training services industry category. Initiated as a direct procurement process below the competition threshold, the contract was awarded on 21st January 2025 and is active until 31st July 2025, with a gross value of GBP 150,000. The supplier selected via this award is MTC Operations Ltd, located in Coventry. Contract documentation was published on 3rd March 2026, marking the completion of the procurement cycle.

This procurement process offers significant business growth opportunities for companies involved in providing education and training services, particularly those focusing on manufacturing engineering apprenticeships. Although the contract was awarded directly without competition, similar opportunities could benefit small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) well-versed in educational consultancy or training programme development, enabling them to leverage past experiences and technical expertise to fulfil similar requirements. The University of Birmingham's focus on developing practical skills through tailored apprenticeships could foster partnerships and innovations within the educational sector, nurturing skill development to meet industry needs.
