UK6 - Contract Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS England procured interim corporate services for NHS Online Trust, covering two broad areas of operational support. Finance and procurement services include core finance, financial planning and budgeting, procurement and contracting, together with supporting systems and infrastructure. Workforce and organisational development services include human resources and employment services, payroll, workforce information systems, organisational development and service support. The requirement is classified as business organisation services and is delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a central NHS support-services requirement rather than a single specialist consultancy assignment: it brings together finance, commercial, HR, payroll, workforce systems and organisational development capability for a new NHS trust. Suppliers would need to support integrated corporate operations across these functions.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a competitive selective procedure under a framework agreement. There was one lot. NHS Shared Business Services Limited was awarded the contract on 21 May 2026. The award value is £4,393,727 excluding VAT, or £5,272,472 including VAT. The award period runs from 22 May 2026 to 21 May 2027, with renewal and option arrangements described as 1+1+1 and a maximum extent date of 21 May 2030. The contract was signed on 19 August 2026 and runs from 19 August 2026 to 31 August 2027, with extensions by agreement for up to three further 12-month periods and a maximum extent date of 31 August 2030. The contract value is £4,393,727.34 excluding VAT, or £5,272,471.81 including VAT.

This award demonstrates demand from NHS England for a sizeable, integrated interim corporate-services operation supporting a new NHS trust. Businesses considering future requirements of this type would need credible capability across finance operations, planning and budgeting, procurement and contracting, HR and employment services, payroll, workforce information systems, organisational development, service support, and the underlying systems and infrastructure. The agreed performance measures indicate that operational control matters: payroll runs must be accurate, invoice processing must be timely, and new suppliers must be onboarded within 10 working days when complete information is supplied, including validation, due diligence and information-governance checks. Strong cross-functional delivery, NHS or similarly regulated-sector experience, and the capacity to manage corporate services as one coordinated service would be commercially relevant.
