Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

National Employment Savings Trust (NEST) procured external data and artificial intelligence literacy training services. The requirement is an AI upskilling and enablement programme, intended to build understanding and practical capability in data and AI across the organisation. The work is categorised as specialist training services (CPV 80510000) and falls within the services category. Delivery is in London, at or associated with NEST’s premises at 10 S Colonnade, London E14 4PU. The buyer is NEST, the organisation responsible for the requirement and its use. This is a focused business training opportunity rather than a software development, consultancy or infrastructure contract: relevant suppliers are those able to design and deliver external-facing data and AI literacy programmes for a UK-based public-sector organisation.

The procurement has been completed and awarded. NEST used a selective call-off from a framework agreement, specifically G-Cloud 14. The tender deadline was 7 July 2026 at 12:00, and the award was made on 6 July 2026. ANDigital Ltd was selected as the supplier for £174,000 including the stated currency of GBP. The contract runs from 8 July 2026 to 8 April 2027. The tender was identified as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, while participation was not reserved for voluntary, community or social enterprises. The recorded procurement value and awarded value are both £174,000. The published outcome records an active award and a completed tender process.

For a supplier that did not win this procurement, the award demonstrates a defined demand for external data and AI literacy training within NEST, delivered through a public-sector framework route. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this kind would need demonstrable expertise in translating data and artificial intelligence concepts into accessible learning, together with the ability to design and deliver an organisation-wide upskilling and enablement programme. Useful evidence would include comparable training delivery, strong instructional design, trainers who can work with varied levels of technical understanding, and the capacity to support a substantial institutional client. Suppliers already positioned on relevant public-sector frameworks, particularly G-Cloud, would understand the route used here. The requirement is suitable for an SME-scale specialist training provider.
