Summary of the contracting process

Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board commissioned specialist training in the prevention and management of violence and aggression (PMVA) for its NHS workforce. This is a health services requirement, covering delivery in NHS settings in Wales. NHS Wales Shared Services and Partnership managed the procurement, while Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board is the buying organisation. The requirement is for training provision rather than clinical treatment, so relevant suppliers are organisations that design and deliver PMVA programmes for healthcare staff. The selected supplier, Pamova Cymru (GS) Ltd, is based in Swansea and is classified as a small or medium-sized enterprise. The requirement relates to one service package and is associated with the health-services classification CPV 85100000.

The procurement has been awarded and the contract is active. It used an above-threshold open procedure. Three bids reached the final stage, all from SMEs. Evaluation was weighted 60% technical quality and 40% commercial cost. Pamova Cymru (GS) Ltd was awarded the contract on 17 April 2026 for £183,300 excluding VAT (£219,960 including VAT). The contract was signed on 1 May 2026 and runs from 8 May 2026 to 7 May 2028, with two optional 12-month renewals extending the maximum period to 7 May 2030. The tender submission deadline was 23 March 2026 at noon, enquiries closed on 16 March 2026, and the award period ended on 13 April 2026. The award standstill ended on 28 April 2026.

This award shows an NHS health board buying a defined PMVA training service through an open, quality-led competition, with technical capability more influential than price. A credible future competitor would need a robust programme for preventing and managing violence and aggression, experienced trainers able to work with NHS staff, and evidence that training can be delivered consistently across multiple Welsh healthcare locations. Suppliers should be able to demonstrate strong technical quality through clear course design, delivery methods, trainer competence, learner outcomes and quality assurance. Commercial readiness also matters: three SME bidders reached the final stage, indicating that the requirement can be contested by specialist providers rather than only large national contractors. Familiarity with NHS operational environments and public-sector contract management would strengthen a future response.
