Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the "WHTHT - Inclusive Culture for Leaders Training" was conducted by West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, a public authority within the central government sector. The process focused on services within the training industry category and took place in Watford, United Kingdom. The contract, awarded on 14th October 2025, entails providing cultural competency training to foster an inclusive workplace in alignment with the Trust's values. It involved a direct procurement method below the threshold with Diversiti UK Training Ltd as the supplier, and the procurement stage has reached completion. The contract was signed on 29th August 2025 and is set to run from 1st September 2025 to 1st September 2026, with a gross value of £20,748.

This tender presents opportunities for businesses focused on training services, especially those offering expertise in diversity and inclusion. Companies that specialise in cultural competency and unconscious bias training stand to benefit considerably, given the growing emphasis on inclusive workplace culture. Large-scale providers with a proven track record in delivering half-day training modules to various professional groups would be well-suited to participate in similar future opportunities. This procurement method, specifically the direct approach without competition, suggests potential for businesses already aligned with the buying organisation's needs and values to establish or strengthen partnerships.
