UK7 - Contract Details Notice
Summary of the contracting process

West Sussex County Council procured specialist workplace and disability-related consultancy services. The requirement covers workplace strategy coaching, co-coaching, assistive technology training and disability awareness training. The work is classified as business and management consultancy and related services (CPV 79400000). It is intended to support workplace strategy and improve understanding of disability and the use of assistive technology. The council is the public-sector buyer, based in Chichester. The selected service provider is Thriiver, an SME. The requirement is organised as a single service package rather than separate lots, covering the full combination of coaching, co-coaching and training activities.

The procurement has been awarded and the tender is complete. West Sussex County Council used a below-threshold limited competition. Thriiver was selected for the single lot, and the contract was signed on 22 February 2026. The contract runs from 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2029, with an option to extend to 28 February 2030 by giving 30 days’ written notice. Its value is £40,000 excluding VAT and £48,000 including VAT. The award is active and the contract is active. The published information identifies the requirement and procurement route, but does not state a separate award date or detailed scoring criteria.

This award shows that the council buys a combined offer covering workplace strategy coaching, co-coaching, assistive technology training and disability awareness training, rather than a single standalone training course. A credible future competitor would therefore need practical workplace strategy expertise alongside the ability to coach individuals or teams, deliver co-coaching, explain and train users in assistive technology, and provide effective disability awareness training. Providers should be able to connect these activities into a coherent service for a public authority. Thriiver’s selection also indicates that an SME can deliver this type of specialist consultancy at the required scale. Experience supporting organisational workplace change and disability inclusion would be directly relevant when this requirement is next considered.
