Summary of the contracting process

The UK Health Security Agency, acting through the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, procured specialist leadership development services for its Chief Operating Officer’s Senior Leadership Team. The requirement was to design and deliver a tailored High Performance Team development programme, delivered in the United Kingdom. This is a service contract focused on leadership development, senior team effectiveness and workshop-based organisational development. The work is intended for a senior leadership audience within a central government health protection organisation, so suppliers with relevant experience of developing leadership teams in complex public-sector or similarly demanding environments would be aligned with the requirement.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Wakeup (UK) Ltd. It used a direct award below the threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 22 July 2026, with an award recorded for the supplier, and runs from 31 July 2026 to 31 January 2028. Its value is £18,800 excluding VAT and £22,560 including VAT. The contract is active. The award covers the single requirement for High Performance Teams Workshops and the supplier is delivering the specialist leadership development programme for UKHSA’s Chief Operating Officer Senior Leadership Team. The outcome shows that the buyer selected a specialist provider through a non-competitive below-threshold route.

For suppliers tracking future work from UKHSA, this award demonstrates demand for focused leadership development delivered through a tailored High Performance Team programme. A credible competitor would need to design and facilitate specialist workshops rather than offer generic training, and show that its approach can support a senior leadership team around team effectiveness, leadership behaviours and operational performance. Experience working with chief operating officer or equivalent executive teams would be commercially relevant, particularly where the client operates in a complex public-sector health environment. The awarded supplier is an SME, indicating that this type of specialist requirement can be delivered by a focused leadership development consultancy rather than only by a large training provider.
