## Summary

Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority procured leadership development training and culture and values development programmes. The work includes training on communication styles, described as communication “personality profiling”, alongside leadership and management development. It is a professional training services requirement for the authority and its workforce, delivered across England. The procurement was managed by Merseyside Fire and Rescue Authority, based in Bootle, with the associated service organisation in Liverpool. The requirement was placed within Category 19, Leadership and Management, of the YPO Training Solutions Dynamic Purchasing System for training solutions serving emergency services and the wider public sector. Businesses specialising in leadership training, organisational culture, values development and workplace communication profiling would be relevant to this requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a limited award procedure without prior publication of a call for competition. It was called off from the YPO Training Solutions Dynamic Purchasing System for emergency services and the wider public sector, under framework arrangements. Twelve bids were recorded, and price was the award criterion. The award was made to Oomph Learning and Development Ltd, an SME, with an awarded contract value of £200,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The award is active and the contract was signed on 17 August 2026. The procurement covered one category, although that lot is recorded as cancelled while the related award remains active. The requirement was for a single supplier rather than separate awards.

This procurement demonstrates demand from a fire and rescue authority for structured leadership, management, culture, values and communication-style training. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need demonstrable capability in designing and delivering leadership development programmes, supporting organisational culture and values, and applying communication or personality-profiling methods appropriately in a workplace setting. Experience of working with emergency services or the wider public sector would help a supplier understand the operational environment and public-service context. The successful supplier was an SME, indicating that delivery does not necessarily depend on being a large corporate provider. Businesses should also be prepared to compete through a dynamic purchasing system and to present a competitively priced offer, since price was the stated evaluation basis.
