## Summary

Somerset Council procured training-provider services to deliver Skills Bootcamps in Somerset and Dorset, under the Department for Education grant funding agreement. The work is adult and other education services, focused on providing Skills Bootcamps across the two counties. The selected provider is to deliver the training rather than supply goods or undertake construction. The buyer is Somerset Council, based in Taunton. The requirement concerns local delivery within Somerset and Dorset; the award data does not identify more specific delivery locations or describe the bootcamp subjects, learner numbers or detailed course content.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to TRAIN4ALL LIMITED. Somerset Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. There was one lot, and the award covers the Skills Bootcamps delivery service. The award date was 19 October 2026. The contract period runs from 19 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The award is valued at £39,500 excluding VAT and £47,400 including VAT. The published procurement information gives no separate evaluation basis for comparing suppliers; this was a non-competitive award. The award is active. The recorded contract period relates to delivery of the services, not necessarily the date of contract signature.

For suppliers considering comparable work for Somerset Council, this award demonstrates demand for Skills Bootcamps delivered by a training provider across Somerset and Dorset. A credible competitor would need the capability to organise and deliver adult training in those areas and to meet the delivery requirements associated with the Department for Education grant funding agreement. Experience working with publicly funded skills programmes and managing delivery across more than one county would be relevant to demonstrating that capability. The selected provider is a small or medium-sized enterprise, showing that delivery at this scale was undertaken by an SME. The award provides a reference point for the type of training service and provider selected; it does not establish additional requirements such as particular accreditations, course subjects, learner volumes or staffing levels.
