## Summary

Carmarthenshire County Council, in collaboration with Pembrokeshire County Council, initiated a tender for the Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for the delivery of qualification training to local authority social care staff in the West Wales region. This procurement process falls under the services category with a specific focus on general public services within the UKL14 region. The tender, titled "DPS for Delivery of qualification training to local authority Social Care staff," was aimed at establishing a framework of training providers. The procurement method was selective, following a restricted procedure. Notably, the contract status was cancelled, with the most recent update on the process dated 9th January 2025.

This tender could normally present significant opportunities for training providers specializing in social care qualifications and training services, especially those capable of delivering high-quality, statutory training. Such businesses could enhance their portfolio by collaborating with local authorities to ensure the workforce in adult and children's social care services is appropriately qualified. However, given the tender's cancellation, potential suppliers may need to stay attentive for any future re-tendering opportunities or similar upcoming projects that might open new avenues for business growth.
