Summary of the contracting process

Nest is procuring a coaching platform and associated human coaching services for colleagues across its workforce. The service is intended to let all colleagues access a human coach for work-related coaching needs when required. Executive coaching and coaching for non-work-related matters are outside the requirement. The scope is classified as coaching services (CPV 79998000) and includes the platform through which the service is accessed, together with coaching provision and supporting account and licence management. Delivery is across the United Kingdom. The requirement sits within Nest’s investment in talent and learning opportunities and is driven by a workforce that is growing rapidly, creating uncertainty about the maximum number of platform licences that may be needed.

The procurement has been completed and the contract was awarded to More Happi Limited on 21 August 2026. Four bids were received, with three reaching the final stage; all three final-stage bidders were SMEs. The open competitive flexible procedure used three stages: platform IT security assessment, written proposal assessment and platform demonstrations. The original estimated value for the single lot was £270,000 excluding VAT (£324,000 including VAT). The award value is £106,000 excluding VAT (£127,200 including VAT). The awarded contract is scheduled to run from 10 September 2026 to 9 September 2027, with one year’s renewal at Nest’s sole discretion, extending the maximum period to 9 September 2028. Evaluation weighted user stories at 60%, account management at 20% and annual fixed price at 20%.

This opportunity indicates demand for a technology-enabled employee coaching service that combines a reliable platform with access to human coaches. A credible future supplier would need to demonstrate that its service can meet detailed user stories, explain clearly how those requirements are delivered, and perform well in a platform IT security assessment. It would also need a robust account management model covering implementation support, performance measures and licence management. The requirement suits SMEs and has already attracted SME participation through the final stage, suggesting that scale alone is not the defining competitive factor. Suppliers should be able to support a growing workforce, manage uncertain licence demand and provide work-related coaching through an English-language service across the United Kingdom.
