Summary of the contracting process

Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust bought general management consultancy services for its Corporate Services Transformation Programme. The requirement was outcome-focused delivery support for the first six months of the Group People Services transformation programme. The work is associated with the Trust’s site on Colney Lane in Norwich, Norfolk, and delivery is in England. This is a professional services opportunity for consultancies able to support organisational transformation and the delivery of people-services change within an NHS trust. The named buyer is Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The procurement concerns services rather than goods or construction works, with the stated classification of general management consultancy services.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust used a selective procedure as a call-off from a framework agreement. The award was made on 28 April 2026 to KORN FERRY (UK) LIMITED for £168,750. The contract period runs from 29 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender deadline was 28 April 2026 at 12:00. The published requirement described outcome-focused support for the first six months of the transformation programme. The award is active. The opportunity was not identified as suitable for small or medium-sized enterprises or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For a supplier that did not win this contract, the award demonstrates demand from this NHS trust for specialist management consultancy supporting corporate-services and people-services transformation. A credible competitor for a future requirement of this type would need a strong record of delivering organisational transformation, turning programme objectives into measurable outcomes and providing practical delivery support rather than advice alone. Relevant capability would include working with senior NHS or other complex public-sector stakeholders, managing change across people services and coordinating implementation during the early stages of a programme. The selected supplier was a large organisation, indicating that the buyer valued substantial consultancy capacity for this requirement.
