The procurement falls under the "Education and training services" category, CPR code 80000000, with delivery addressed in London, England. The award process culminated on 23rd October 2024 and was subsequently published on 27th February 2026.

Organisations involved in cloud-based video management services would find themselves well-positioned to provide competitive and scalable offerings to NHS England. Despite not being explicitly suitable for SMEs or VCSEs, larger enterprises with capabilities in digital education platforms such as Softcat plc, the supplier awarded the contract, exemplify the ideal participants due to the scale of services required and expertise in handling large, authenticated user bases.
