Summary of the contracting process

NHS England has concluded a selective procurement process for an accessibility audit and training programme, awarded to Nexer Digital Ltd. This initiative, valued at £74,000, focuses on health services and aims to enhance digital accessibility compliance with relevant regulations and guidelines. The procurement was executed as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award, dated 8th December 2025, marks the transition to the contract phase, which spans from 18th December 2025 to 30th November 2027. The buying organisation, NHS England, is based in London, United Kingdom, and is committed to engaging small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in this strategic effort.

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for businesses specialising in digital accessibility and health services to align themselves with NHS England’s objectives. Companies that offer innovative solutions in accessibility training and compliance are well-positioned to capitalise on the growing demand for such services in the public sector. SMEs in particular may benefit from such a targeted procurement, as it not only offers financial growth but also the chance to form a partnership with a significant public health entity. The focus on compliance with accessibility standards could also create further avenues for businesses that provide ancillary services in digital content and web development.
