## Summary

Somerset Council procured adult education and skills training services: delivery agreements for Skills Bootcamps for learners in Somerset and Dorset. The training is intended to meet the requirements of the Department for Education grant funding agreement. The named delivery area is Somerset and Dorset; the procurement does not specify particular venues or course subjects. Yeovil College was selected to deliver the service. This is a training-provider requirement rather than a purchase of equipment or construction work, and may be relevant to colleges and other organisations with the ability to provide adult vocational training in these areas under the Bootcamp programme.

The procurement is complete and the award is active. Somerset Council used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. One lot was awarded to Yeovil College on 20 October 2026. The award value is £79,800 excluding VAT (£95,760 including VAT). The contract period runs from 20 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. The procurement data does not set out separate evaluation criteria; the award is recorded as a direct award rather than the result of a competitive evaluation. The service is described as delivery under the Department for Education grant funding agreement, covering Skills Bootcamps within Somerset and Dorset.

For providers considering similar work with Somerset Council, this award indicates demand for adult skills training delivered through Skills Bootcamps in Somerset and Dorset, within the requirements of a Department for Education grant funding agreement. A credible provider would need the capacity to organise and deliver relevant training for adult learners across the stated area, and to meet the programme and funding-agreement requirements. The selected provider, Yeovil College, demonstrates that a large education institution was chosen for this delivery. The opportunity is service-based and focused on training delivery, so organisations with established adult education provision and the operational ability to deliver locally are the closest comparators. The procurement used a direct award without competition; it therefore provides limited evidence about competitive evaluation criteria or specific accreditation requirements.»} blugh?
