Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process, led by NHS England, involved the award of a contract for providing staff training services under the title "Nat.441 Rosalind Franklin 26.27 Innovas". This selective procurement call-off from a framework agreement pertained to the delivery of programme sessions, workshops, and assignment marking for the Rosalind Franklin programme. The tender process has been completed, with an active award status announced on 8th July 2026. The contract commenced on 2nd July 2026 and is set to conclude on 30th November 2027.
