Summary of the contracting process

Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust procured professional membership services from the Royal College of Psychiatrists. The requirement covered QNOAMHS three-year memberships for three people, QNPICU three-year memberships for two people, QNWA three-year memberships for five people, and QNCRHTT three-year memberships for three people. In plain terms, this is a staff accreditation and professional-membership purchase rather than clinical service delivery, consultancy or construction. The service category is membership organisation services (CPV 98100000). The activity supports NHS staff whose roles require or benefit from membership or accreditation connected with the Royal College of Psychiatrists. Delivery is in the United Kingdom, for the Trust’s relevant services and personnel.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. The Trust used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition, covering one lot. The award was recorded on 19 August 2026 to the Royal College of Psychiatrists. Its value is £103,970 excluding VAT and £124,764 including VAT. The award covers services from 19 August 2026 to 18 August 2029, giving a three-year contract period. A contract signature was scheduled for 19 August 2026. The published outcome identifies the Royal College of Psychiatrists as the selected supplier. The requirement was treated as a services procurement and was awarded through the direct, non-competitive route rather than scored against competing bids.

This outcome shows established demand from the NHS Trust for structured Royal College of Psychiatrists memberships and related professional accreditation, supporting multiple staff groups over a multi-year period. A credible competitor for a future requirement would need a direct relationship with the relevant professional body, authority to provide recognised memberships or accreditations, and reliable administration of different membership categories and quantities. It would also need to understand NHS purchasing controls, supply accurate entitlement records, and support renewals or changes across several clinical teams. The requirement suits the Royal College itself or an authorised membership provider with equivalent access, administrative capacity and experience serving public-sector healthcare organisations. It is less relevant to general training, recruitment or clinical outsourcing businesses.
