Summary of the contracting process

NHS Business Services Authority procured apprenticeship training for the Coaching Professional Level 5 standard. This is a specialist education and workforce-development service covering coaching skills, personal development and staff training, rather than the supply of physical goods or construction works. Delivery is associated with the Authority’s base in Newcastle upon Tyne and was structured to support learners undertaking the relevant professional apprenticeship. The requirement sits within education and training services, with related personnel-training, specialist-training and personal-development elements. The contracting authority is NHS Business Services Authority, based at Goldcrest Way, Newcastle upon Tyne. The awarded provider was SCL Education & Training Limited, whose business includes delivering large-scale training services. The arrangement was made for the Authority’s organisational workforce and may involve delivery across the United Kingdom and other stated locations.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to SCL Education & Training Limited on 7 July 2026. The award value was £10,000 including the published currency, and the contract period runs from 15 July 2026 to 14 December 2027, a period of 17 months. The procurement used a selective call-off from the GCA Apprenticeship Training dynamic purchasing system, CCS RM6102, through a rapid award route. The tender submission deadline was 1 July 2026 at 12:00. The contract was awarded under the dynamic purchasing system rather than through an unrestricted tender. The published outcome records one active award and one supplier. The requirement was classified as services, with education and training services as the primary classification and staff, personnel, specialist and personal-development training as related areas.

This outcome indicates demand from NHS Business Services Authority for an established provider of Level 5 coaching apprenticeship training, with the capability to deliver structured apprenticeship provision rather than one-off informal coaching. A credible future competitor would need suitable education and training infrastructure, qualified coaching tutors and assessors, effective learner support, and the ability to manage the administrative and quality requirements associated with apprenticeship delivery. Experience in staff development, personal development and specialist training would be directly relevant. The awarded supplier is recorded as a large organisation, while the opportunity was not marked as suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises, suggesting that scale, delivery capacity and organisational resilience were important commercial considerations. Familiarity with dynamic purchasing system call-offs and rapid-award procedures would also help a provider compete effectively.
