Summary of the contracting process

Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust procured staff training services for doctors, delivered in London. The programme covers a broad professional development portfolio: preparation for success with CESR, teaching skills, artificial intelligence in medicine, project management, core management skills for clinicians, medical-legal skills, NHS induction for overseas doctors, leading cultural change, extended roles for SAS doctors, and development as an educator and leader. The purpose is to improve doctors’ career opportunities and strengthen clinical, educational and management capability. The requirement is primarily a training and professional development service rather than clinical treatment, equipment supply or construction work. It is suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises, indicating that the work can be delivered by a specialist training provider without the scale of a large corporate supplier.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a tender process. The submission deadline was 14 March 2025 at 12:00 UTC. RES Consortium Limited was selected on 1 April 2025 for £34,600, with the contract running from 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026. The original estimated value was between £33,600 and £34,800 including the stated currency, GBP. The Trust used an open tender approach, with the method described as “Other”. The award is active and covers the full training programme for doctors. Evaluation was for staff training services, with the requirement treated as a services contract. The award was made to a single supplier rather than being divided between multiple named suppliers or separately reported lots.

For a supplier assessing future demand from this NHS trust, the award demonstrates a requirement for a compact but wide-ranging medical education portfolio. A credible competitor would need experience designing and delivering training for doctors across career progression, teaching, leadership, management, project work, medical law, cultural change, artificial intelligence and NHS orientation. The breadth favours a provider able either to deliver several specialist subjects in-house or to coordinate a coherent faculty of subject experts. Content must be relevant to clinicians, including overseas doctors and SAS doctors, while supporting educators and emerging leaders. Evidence of practical medical education delivery, understanding of NHS professional contexts and the capacity to manage a multi-course programme would strengthen a future response. The opportunity is explicitly suitable for SMEs.
