Hull City Council · Local authority

In brief

Hull City Council has announced plans to buy training and education work. This is an early notice: there is nothing to bid on yet, but it tells you a tender may follow.

It is a framework worth up to £17,787,032 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

The contract runs for 2 years, up to 4 years with extensions, starting 1 September 2027.

The buyer says it is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses.

Built from the notice's own fields. Always check the official notice before you bid.

Can I win this?

Competition

Usually high: a median of 7 bids per contract for this buyer (from 95 awards in the last 12 months).

Framework

Winning puts you on a list of suppliers the buyer can call on; it does not guarantee work. The £17,787,032 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

Hull City Council are inviting suppliers to express their interest in working alongside the Children's Services Team for the delivery of the Alternative Provision Framework. The event will provide information on the commissioning plans for the services and procurement timelines. The event is being held in person at Brunswick House on 15th July 2026 @ 13:30 - 15:00. To book your place please utilise the messaging section on YORtender https://yortender.eu-supply.com/
