## Summary

The Security Industry Authority is procuring specialist training services for delivery of the Level 3 Award in Counter-Terrorism Protective Security and Preparedness. The requirement is to provide the complete training course, classified as training services (CPV 80500000). It is intended for the Authority’s operational and professional development needs in counter-terrorism protective security and preparedness. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The procurement contains one completed lot covering the full requirement. This opportunity is therefore relevant to training providers with the subject-matter expertise, course delivery capability and operational capacity to deliver a nationally scoped counter-terrorism protective security qualification for a central government public authority.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. Five bids were received, all five progressed to the final stage, and all five final-stage bidders were SMEs. The contract was awarded on 18 September 2026 to Capricorn Training Limited and Trident Manor Limited. The awarded value is £52,500 excluding VAT and £63,000 including VAT. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2027. One lot covers the training requirement, and the award is active. A contract signature milestone was scheduled for 30 September 2026. The published information identifies the service requirement and procurement route, but does not set out detailed evaluation weightings or separate values for the two awarded suppliers.

This award demonstrates established demand from the Security Industry Authority for structured counter-terrorism protective security and preparedness training delivered at UK-wide scale. Suppliers best placed for a future requirement would be specialist training organisations able to deliver the Level 3 Award consistently across the country, manage learner administration and course delivery, and demonstrate credible expertise in protective security, counter-terrorism and preparedness. The successful supply model uses two SME providers, showing that delivery can be undertaken by smaller specialist businesses, potentially working collaboratively to provide sufficient geographic coverage and capacity. Relevant competitors should be able to evidence qualified trainers, robust course materials, reliable quality assurance and experience delivering formal vocational or professional training to public-sector or security-focused audiences.
