Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS England commissioned delivery of Modernising Education in TEL (METEL), classified as education and training services. The stated scope is limited to delivering the METEL programme; no further breakdown of the teaching, training or other activities is described. The buying organisation is NHS England, and the delivery address is in Leeds, at Wellington Place. The named supplier, People-Star Limited, is based in Marlow. The procurement therefore concerns education and training provision for an NHS England programme, rather than the supply of physical goods or construction work.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to People-Star Limited through a selective call-off from a framework agreement. The award date was 5 October 2026. The award is valued at £1,320,000; the tender record separately gives an estimated value of £330,000. The stated contract period runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 March 2027, with two optional extensions of 12 months each. The tender deadline was 4 October 2026. The available evaluation information does not describe the criteria used to select the supplier. The procurement is not divided into lots, and its stated suitability information indicates it was not suitable for SMEs or voluntary, community and social enterprises.

For suppliers of education and training services, this award shows that NHS England buys delivery of its Modernising Education in TEL programme through a call-off from a framework agreement. People-Star Limited, the selected supplier, is identified as an SME, although the procurement itself was marked as unsuitable for SMEs. No specific accreditations, delivery capabilities, staffing levels or experience requirements are described, so the award does not establish a particular technical profile beyond supplying the programme’s education and training services. A credible competitor for a comparable requirement would need to demonstrate relevant capacity to deliver this programme for NHS England and to compete through the applicable framework route; the available information does not identify more specific qualifications or selection thresholds.
