Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Greater Manchester Combined Authority procured clinical governance and trauma/first aid training with external quality assurance (EQA). This is a health and social work services requirement, covering the delivery of training and associated quality assurance for the authority. The stated delivery location is the United Kingdom. The requirement was arranged as a single lot, although that lot is recorded as cancelled in the tender information. The selected supplier is GIBB GROUP LTD, based in Aberdeen. Organisations relevant to this procurement include training providers, clinical governance specialists, trauma and first-aid educators, and external quality assurance providers able to support a public authority’s training requirement.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded. Greater Manchester Combined Authority used a limited procedure without prior publication of a call for competition, identifying the requirement as below threshold. The tender records price as the award criterion and records one bid for the lot. GIBB GROUP LTD received the active award. The contract value is £60,000, and the contract was signed on 11 April 2025. The requirement included two possible 12-month extensions. The tender information records the single lot as cancelled, while the associated award and contract are recorded as active. The process therefore has a completed procurement outcome, with GIBB GROUP LTD selected for the training and EQA requirement.

This procurement indicates a defined public-sector demand for combined clinical governance, trauma and first-aid training, supported by external quality assurance. A credible future competitor would need demonstrable capability across both training delivery and independent or structured quality assurance, rather than offering first-aid instruction alone. Relevant experience in clinical governance, trauma response education and quality-controlled training provision would help establish fit for the requirement. Providers should also be able to work with a combined authority and explain how training quality, consistency and outcomes are monitored. Because the recorded evaluation basis was price, suppliers would need a cost model that remains competitive while supporting the required clinical and assurance standards.
