Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Business Services Authority is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process for a Learning, Talent and Performance System(s), set to conclude with an engagement end date of 10 September 2021. This initiative aims to support the management of learning and performance for approximately 3,000-4,000 employees. The authority seeks to establish a solution that provides robust reporting tools and is expected to be operational by 31 March 2022. The procurement falls under the category of software package and information systems, with services required across various delivery locations including the United Kingdom and overseas territories.

This procurement presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in software development, particularly those with experience in creating integrated learning and performance management systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are well-suited to compete for this contract, especially given the commissioning authority's interest in exploring multiple system delivery models. Engaging in this tender process may lead to fruitful partnerships or contracts with the NHSBSA, which is looking to innovate its employee support systems.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Learning, Talent and Performance System(s) - Early Market Engagement

Notice Description

The NHSBSA have a requirement for a system, or a number of systems, that allow effective management of employees' learning, talent and performance. The NHSBSA's Learning and Organisational Development (L&OD) team support between 3,000-4,000 employees. About NHSBSA: The NHSBSA is a national organisation providing a broad range of business services that support the wider NHS. Further information on our extensive service portfolio can be found at: https://www.nhsbsa.nhs.uk/about-us. These requirements are currently partly met by an NHS-wide Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. However, the NHSBSA are looking to move away from this system for learning, talent and performance management. Any new system(s) will need to allow for powerful reporting mechanisms to drive insight for the L&OD team, leaders, managers and users. The solution is required to be live and operational by no later than 31/03/2022. It is acknowledged that there are a range of models for delivering these requirements (for example, a singular system or multiple systems focusing on individual areas). The NHSBSA are keen to understand more about the different approaches that could be taken to meet the needs. The NHSBSA conducted a high-level Request For Information (RFI) exercise in early 2021. Further to this, the NHSBSA now wishes to complete a more detailed market engagement exercise to include a webinar event and some 1-2-1 discussions. Further information related to the early market engagement activities and how to participate can be found in the Additional Information section of the Find a Tender Service Notice, which can be found here: https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/019880-2021
