National Training Framework

Scottish Police Authority · Police and fire

In brief

Scottish Police Authority 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 £1,000,000 excluding VAT: the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers, not one contract.

It is split into 2 lots, so a supplier can bid for part of the work.

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

Can I win this?

Competition

Typical: a median of 3 bids per contract for this buyer (from 37 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 £1,000,000 is the most the buyer expects to spend across all suppliers over the framework's life, not one contract.

What the notice says

This Prior Information Notice is to indicate that a National Training Framework will be developed to assist Police Scotland with an array of Personal and Specialist training for serving officers and police staff.

How to bid

  1. Read the full notice on Find a Tender, including any tender documents it links to.
  2. Follow the submission instructions in the notice; it does not name an e-tendering portal.
