Summary of the contracting process

Ordnance Survey Limited bought leadership development and facilitation services for its Senior Leadership Team Connect programme. The requirement supports stronger senior leadership capability and collective leadership effectiveness as part of the organisation’s transformation and strategy to 2030. The work covers co-designing a systems-focused leadership intervention aligned with Ordnance Survey’s leadership framework and organisational priorities; co-facilitating and delivering a senior leadership event; and applying leadership development, coaching and systems-thinking approaches. The supplier must produce session materials, behavioural insights, recommendations and a post-event report. Services also include stakeholder engagement, governance, performance management and continuous-improvement recommendations. This is a service procurement, covering management training, staff development, human resources consultancy and business development consultancy. Delivery is UK-wide, with the buyer based in Southampton.

The procurement has been completed and awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. The sole lot is complete. Ordnance Survey signed an active contract with The Performants Group Limited, trading as T-minus, on 15 September 2026, with delivery running from 15 September to 30 November 2026. The awarded value is £34,125 excluding VAT, or £40,950 including VAT. The contract award is active and the tender is recorded as complete. The procurement used a limited procedure, with competition restricted below the applicable threshold. The award was made to T-minus for the full leadership development and facilitation requirement. The published outcome identifies the service scope and procurement route but does not state a separate quality, price or other evaluation weighting.

This outcome indicates demand from Ordnance Survey for specialist leadership-development partners able to work with a senior leadership team during organisational transformation. Credible competitors would need demonstrable capability in executive and management development, facilitation of senior leadership events, coaching and systems thinking. They would also need to co-design interventions around an existing leadership framework rather than deliver generic training, and translate workshop activity into practical behavioural insights, recommendations and a clear post-event report. Experience of enterprise-wide decision-making, accountability, strategy execution and leadership performance would be relevant, as would the capacity to manage stakeholder engagement, governance, performance reporting and follow-through. Suppliers combining consultancy, structured leadership training and high-quality facilitation are best placed for a comparable requirement from this buyer.
