The procurement is complete and was awarded to SWANN Training & Consultancy Ltd – Richard Swann on 9 October 2026. The stated contract period is 1 November 2026 to 31 October 2027, with an option to extend by up to one year, to 31 October 2028. The award data gives a value of £158,580, while the description states an aggregate value including any extension of £7,700 including VAT, with annual amounts of £3,208 and £4,492; these figures conflict. The procurement used a limited route described as competitive quotation below threshold. The stated response deadline was 9 October 2025 at noon. SMEs were considered suitable. No evaluation criteria or lots are stated.

This award shows demand from NHS Essex Integrated Care Board for safeguarding supervision delivered across Essex, and that a specialist training and consultancy supplier was selected. A future competitor would need credible capability to provide safeguarding supervision in a health and social care setting, and the capacity to serve the ICB’s area. The procurement identified the opportunity as suitable for SMEs, indicating that smaller providers were considered capable of competing. The award does not set out required accreditations, named professional qualifications or specific experience thresholds, so these cannot be treated as stated conditions for a future competition.
