## Summary

Companies House is undertaking a procurement process for specialist Terraform training to enhance the skills of its engineering staff managing infrastructure\u2011as\u2011code (IaC). This initiative is driven by the Digital, Data, and Technology (DDaT) directorate to optimise their cloud infrastructure capabilities. The contract has been awarded to IBM United Kingdom Limited, signifying the completion of this procurement under the direct procurement method, classified as "Below threshold - without competition." Based in Cardiff, Companies House aims to close skills gaps and advance their digital infrastructure through targeted training in standard workflows and best practices. This contract, valued at £34,200 gross, started on 17 March 2026 and will conclude by 31 March 2026.

The procurement of Terraform training services offers substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in IT training and digital infrastructure. With Companies House prioritising efficient and scalable development practices, companies skilled in cloud automation and devOps processes can benefit significantly by positioning themselves as key service providers for similar public sector initiatives. Large-scale organisations with a strong portfolio in training services, like IBM, are well-placed to secure such contracts, especially when they possess the expertise to deliver comprehensive staff upskilling strategies. As central government continues to move towards digital transformation, businesses in these niche sectors will find increased avenues for expansion.

## Notice

The Digital, Data and Technology (DDaT) directorate has identified a requirement for specialist Terraform training to upskill engineering staff responsible for developing and maintaining Companies House's infrastructure-as-code (IaC) capability. The training is intended to cover core Terraform competencies, including fundamentals, configuration, modules, state management, standard workflows, and recognised best practice. The purpose of this procurement is to address a current skills gap within engineering teams and to support the organisation's strategic progression toward more automated, scalable, and maintainable cloud infrastructure. Without this targeted training, there is a risk of inconsistent IaC practices, increased operational overheads, and a reduced ability to deliver against future digital roadmap commitments.
