Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by NHS England, focused on the development and delivery of a digital solution for the Leadership Competency Framework (LCF) 360 assessment, Board appraisal, and Fit and Proper Persons Test (FPPT) for the NHS. The project falls under the "Software package and information systems" industry category and the services will be delivered across the United Kingdom. With the contract period running from 15 February 2025 to 14 February 2026, the procurement utilized a selective method through a call-off from a framework agreement. The tender stage has been completed, with the award status currently active, published on 7 January 2026. The total project value is £421,990 GBP.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses capable of offering digital solutions to the healthcare sector, particularly those specialising in assessment and appraisal technologies. Though the project is not specifically targeted towards small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and it would not be suitable for voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), businesses with the capacity to deliver large-scale digital assessments can benefit from this contract. Successful completion of such projects can enhance their profile and lead to further engagements in the public healthcare sector with NHS England or other similar establishments. The procurement showcases the need for specialist digital solutions in public health administration, opening avenues for IT firms looking to enter or expand within the public sector.
