Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "NHS Finance Training" contract, managed by the Black Country Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, focuses on providing specialist finance training to its trust finance team. This process falls under the services industry category and was conducted using a direct procurement method below the threshold without competition. The procurement, located in the United Kingdom in the West Midlands region, was in the award stage as of August 2025, following the contract's signing and activation from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026. The buyer, a public authority within the central government, is based in Wolverhampton, and the awarded supplier is HFMA Ltd, a large-scale enterprise based in Bristol.

This contract presents valuable opportunities for businesses specialising in training services, particularly those with a focus on finance and healthcare sectors. Companies that excel in providing comprehensive, tailored training to large organisations like NHS Trusts would find this type of tender well-aligned with their capabilities. Although the contract was awarded without competition, similar future opportunities may emerge that allow qualified service providers to engage with public authority contracts, thereby expanding their clientele and fostering business growth. Engaging in this sector could lead to the establishment of enduring partnerships with public health organisations, enhancing credibility and market presence.
