Summary of the contracting process

The tender process titled "Nat.428 Rosalind Franklin Programme 2025/26" was conducted by NHS England, a reputable buyer located in London, UK. This procurement falls under the education and training services category and aims to deliver 10 cohorts of the programme, along with additional services like assignment moderation and mobilisation sessions. The procurement method followed was selective, specifically a call-off from a framework agreement. After entering the award stage, the process was completed, with effective contract dates from 20th January 2026 to 18th October 2026. The total contract value amounts to £124,615.50 GBP, offering services across diverse locations including the British Oversea Territories and the Channel Islands.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in educational services, particularly those capable of managing extensive training programmes and delivery across multiple regions.
