Summary of the contracting process

The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust procured an electronic staff learning and talent platform based on the Totara Learning Management System. The requirement covers software-related services for delivering and managing staff learning and talent development, supplied through the G-Cloud 14 framework. The buying organisation is The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust, based in Welwyn Garden City, and the platform is to be delivered for use in Harlow, England. Totara Learning (Europe) Limited was selected as the supplier. This is a technology and learning-management opportunity for providers of digital learning platforms, learning administration software and associated implementation or support services, particularly those able to provide Totara or comparable systems to NHS organisations.

The procurement has been completed and awarded through a selective call-off from the G-Cloud 14 framework. The contract was awarded to Totara Learning (Europe) Limited on 5 February 2026 for £89,000 including the stated contract value; the estimated range was £80,000 to £89,000. The contract runs from 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2028. The requirement was categorised as goods and evaluated through the framework call-off process. It was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises. The award is active and covers a single electronic staff learning and talent platform requirement for The Princess Alexandra Hospital NHS Trust.

For suppliers that did not win this award, the procurement indicates established demand from an NHS trust for a dedicated staff learning and talent platform delivered through a public-sector framework. Credible competitors for a future requirement would need a mature learning-management product, with functionality suitable for organising staff training and supporting talent development. They would also need to understand NHS operating environments, provide dependable implementation and ongoing service support, and meet the compliance, security and procurement requirements associated with public-sector technology. Framework availability or a route into an equivalent public-sector purchasing arrangement would be important, as this requirement was bought through a framework call-off rather than an open standalone tender. Totara expertise would be directly relevant.
