In May 2026 Leeds City Council intend to publish a mini-competition for Tailored Learning 2025-28 Multi-year zero-value skills delivery contracts on the Employment and Skills Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) published on Mercell/EU_Supply under ProContract DPS id: 47772 (DN310329). To be in a position to bid in the planned mini-competition, your organisation must be a pre-approved supplier in Category 3 on the DPS, prior to the publishing of the Tailored Learning 2025-28 mini-competition in May. Existing DPS Providers please ignore this PIN if you are already pre-approved in this category unless you wish to amend your previous submission with additional services that you can supply to the Council. The Purpose of this PIN is to: 1) Raise awareness of the planned Tailored Learning 2025-28 mini-competition for Category 3 for pre-approved providers that joined the DPS after the previous AllSkills mini-competitions for contracts. 2) Encourage skills training suppliers who are compliant with the Ofsted Further Education and Skills Inspection Toolkit quality standards and who are able to deliver face to face provision in Leeds, that are not currently on the DPS, to apply to join the DPS before Mid May 2026 to become a pre-approved supplier in Category 3, and be in a position to submit a bid in the planned mini-competition for contracts. Organisations interested in applying to join the Leeds City Council DPS should read the "message to our potential providers" section below. The following link will take you directly to the login page on Mercell / EU_Supply national eTendering platform: YORtender (eu-supply.com) if your organisation does not already have a supplier eTendering account you will need to first register as a supplier on Mercell / EU_Supply. Search for tender ID 47772 once logged into Mercell / EU_Supply this will take you to the Employment and Skills Dynamic Purchasing System, where you can access the specifications and instructions how to become a pre-approved supplier on the E&S DPS. Further support on how to register and apply is available on request by contacting cefundingbids@leeds.gov.uk. Please note: you must have joined the E&S DPS as a pre-approved supplier to be in a position to bid in the Tailored Learning 2025-28 mini-competition in mid-May.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 80. The category anchor is Education and training services (80000000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 806,0731 median · 48.2 average (2,866 of 6,073 with a bid count)3 average (3,109 of 6,073 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs
Same buyer27.5 median · 7.5 average (2 of 2 with a bid count)5.5 average (2 of 2 with named award suppliers)Not published
Delivery region: UKE42546 median · 24 average (20 of 54 with a bid count)4 average (22 of 54 with named award suppliers)Not published

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.
