Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured specialist workplace support services covering workplace strategy coaching, co-coaching, assistive technology training and disability awareness training. The requirement is a professional consultancy service intended to help address workplace strategy and disability-related support needs. The procurement is classified as business and management consultancy and related services (CPV 79400000). The buyer is West Sussex County Council, based in Chichester. The selected service provider is Neurobox Ltd, a small and medium-sized enterprise specialising in the required combination of workplace coaching, assistive technology and disability awareness training. The scope suits consultancies, training providers and specialist workplace inclusion businesses able to deliver these services as a combined offer.

This procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. It used a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was completed, with the award made to Neurobox Ltd; the award is active. The contract was signed on 22 February 2026 and runs from 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2029. West Sussex County Council may extend it by a further 12 months, to a maximum end date of 28 February 2030, by giving 30 days’ written notice to the consultant. The contract value is £40,000 excluding VAT and £48,000 including VAT. The contract is below the applicable threshold and is active. No award evaluation criteria are stated.

This award demonstrates a defined requirement for an integrated workplace support offer rather than a single training course. Suppliers competing for similar work with West Sussex County Council would need credible capability in workplace strategy coaching, co-coaching, assistive technology training and disability awareness training. The strongest position would come from combining advisory work with practical training and an understanding of disability-related workplace adjustments. A small or medium-sized specialist provider can compete for this type of council requirement, as shown by the selected supplier. Relevant businesses should be able to show experience delivering accessible, practical support to workplaces, coordinate several related service lines, and provide consultants or trainers who can work consistently across the contract.
