Basildon Borough Council · Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender

Tender information last checkedLast checked 26 Sept 2026, 21:00.

Opportunity overview

Basildon Borough Council is exploring opportunities to establish and operate a new Basildon Construction Academy that will support the delivery of local skills, training, employment and apprenticeship opportunities aligned with the borough's regeneration and growth ambitions. Prior to commencing any formal procurement process, the Council is seeking to engage with experienced training providers, further education institutions, industry operators, and consortium partners to help shape the future operating model for the Academy. The Council is therefore inviting interested organisations to participate in an interactive pre-market engagement workshop to discuss opportunities, challenges, delivery models and options appraisals to help form the specification.
