Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Ministry of Defence bought an online mentoring and coaching platform for the Royal Air Force. It is intended to help mentors and coaches establish and maintain relationships with mentees and coachees across the RAF’s mentoring and coaching programmes. The requirement is for a digital platform rather than the delivery of coaching or personal development training itself. The stated delivery coverage is broad, including the United Kingdom and overseas locations. The buyer is the Ministry of Defence, and the service category is digital support for mentoring and coaching. The platform enables the relationships that underpin these programmes; the procurement description does not detail additional platform functions or technical specifications.

The procurement is complete and a supplier has been selected. The Ministry of Defence awarded the call-off to Perform Learn Develop Limited, a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 15 September 2026. The awarded contract value is £31,000. The contract period runs from 1 October 2026 to 30 September 2029. The tender deadline was 15 September 2026. The opportunity was marked as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises. No lots or evaluation criteria are stated in the available process information. The contract is for the RAF mentoring and coaching platform; this is an award outcome, not an invitation to submit a bid.

For suppliers that did not win, this award demonstrates Ministry of Defence demand for an online platform supporting structured mentoring and coaching relationships within the RAF. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to provide a usable digital service that enables mentors, coaches, mentees and coachees to establish and maintain their relationships, and to support programmes at an organisation-wide scale across UK and overseas locations. The buyer selected a small and medium-sized supplier through a framework call-off, showing that this route and supplier scale can serve the requirement. The commercial focus is platform provision for RAF mentoring and coaching, rather than general training delivery. Suppliers with relevant platform capability and experience supporting these programmes would be best placed to compete when this specific requirement next reaches the market.
