Summary of the contracting process

The UK Atomic Energy Authority procured a mentoring and coaching platform for its organisation. The requirement is primarily software supply, with associated IT consulting, software development, internet and support services. In practical terms, the appointed supplier provides and supports a digital platform used to facilitate mentoring and coaching for UKAEA. The buying organisation is the UK Atomic Energy Authority, based at Culham Science Centre in Oxfordshire. The awarded work is delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a service opportunity for providers of mentoring and coaching technology, platform implementation and technical support, rather than a general coaching consultancy requirement without a software element.

The procurement has been completed and the contract awarded following a below-threshold open competition. Five bids were received, with one valid bid reaching the final stage. The Taylor Clarke Partnership Ltd was awarded the contract on 10 July 2026. The award value was £33,500 excluding VAT and £40,000 including VAT. The signed contract is valued at £40,200 including VAT, was signed on 25 August 2026 and runs from 25 August 2026 to 24 August 2029, with renewal described as 1+1 and a maximum extent to 25 August 2031. The tender submission deadline was 26 June 2026, and evaluation was set out in the tender pack.

This award demonstrates UKAEA demand for a specialist mentoring and coaching platform supported by software supply and related technical services. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need to show a proven platform that can support organisational mentoring and coaching, together with reliable implementation, software development, internet-based service delivery and ongoing technical support. The winning supplier was an SME, showing that the requirement can be delivered by a smaller specialist business rather than only by a large systems integrator. Relevant evidence would include successful delivery of comparable digital platforms, dependable service support, the ability to work with a public-sector science and technology organisation, and clear performance measures for platform availability, user support and service quality.
