UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS England initiated a procurement process titled "Learning & Development to Support Policy & Improvement in the NHS", focusing on the education and training services category. The procurement, aimed at enhancing the capabilities of local NHS health and care leaders, was conducted using a direct method without competition, under a light-touch regime. Located in London, the contract commenced on 15th October 2025 and concluded on 31st March 2026. Although initially active, the contract was ultimately terminated by 15th June 2026, after being completed. The NHS Providers served as the supplier for this contract, with the total contract value amounting to £320,000 GBP.

This tender offers significant opportunities for organisations specialising in educational and training services, particularly those focused on public health and policy improvement initiatives. Businesses that are well-versed in delivering bespoke learning and development programmes for healthcare leaders would find considerable opportunities for growth by engaging in similar procurement processes. The ability to tailor training solutions aligned with strategic health priorities, such as those outlined in the NHS's 10 Year Health Plan, would be advantageous. Businesses that have an established authority in navigating public sector contracts and compliance with government regulations will be particularly well-suited to contribute meaningfully to future initiatives of this nature.
