Summary of the contracting process

North East London NHS Foundation Trust is currently overseeing a tender process for an "Accredited Mediation Programme" aimed at enhancing their Just and Compassionate Culture Transformation programme. The procurement falls under the education and training services category and targets locations across Essex, Kent, and North London. Interested parties can submit their proposals through an open competition method by 10th December 2025, with enquiries closing by 5th December 2025. This tender is designated for a one-year service agreement starting from 2nd March 2026 to 1st March 2027, involving a fixed budget of £13,000.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in HR consultancy, professional training services, or mediation services.

The evaluation criteria are balanced between technical competence and pricing, making it an attractive opportunity for firms with competitive pricing strategies alongside a proficient service offering. Prospective companies must engage via the Multiquote portal to submit offers, ensuring that all requested information is provided to maximise their scoring potential.
