Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process for the Obstetric Sonography Training Offer by Liverpool Women's University Hospital involved NHS England as the buying organisation. The contract, associated with the education and training industry category, was situated in Liverpool, United Kingdom. Although the contract was initiated and awarded on 25th November 2025, it was later terminated on 31st March 2026. The process used a direct procurement method, classified as below threshold and without competition, under the legal basis of the UKPGA 2023/54. The total value of the contract was £373,730, and the termination notice was published on 9th June 2026 due to administrative delays.

This tender opened opportunities for firms involved in educational and training services, particularly those familiar with healthcare settings. Large-scale businesses, capable of offering comprehensive obstetric sonography training, would have been well-suited to participate. Such contracts, though now concluded, present significant growth opportunities for businesses seeking to collaborate with prominent healthcare institutions like Liverpool Women's University Hospital and NHS England in future tenders.
