The procurement has reached tender: the buyer invited offers through an open procedure. Bids must be submitted by 9 October 2026 at 3:00pm, with the recorded bid opening and start of the award period at 3:30pm that day. Submissions are electronic or written and must be in English. The initial contract period is 870 days. The estimated value is £243,478 excluding any stated tax treatment, and includes optional extensions of up to two further 12-month periods. The buyer does not allow variants. The tender is a single requirement rather than a set of separately described lots. The published information does not set out an award weighting or scoring basis.

This opportunity suits a learning technology supplier able to provide and support a ready-made learning management system for community and health-related education. Relevant capability includes configuring or delivering online learning for people with mental health conditions, carers and Health and Social Care personnel, together with creating bespoke educational content. Suppliers should be able to work across the Northern Ireland health and social care context and support varied user groups, including community learners and professional staff. Experience combining software delivery with education, training or health and social care content would be directly relevant. The requirement is likely to suit an established provider with the technical capacity to deliver the platform and develop the associated content.
