Summary of the contracting process

NHS England commissioned the development of introductory, on-demand learning modules for its digital, data and technology (DDaT) workforce. The intended suite covers product and delivery, and user-centred design, for staff new to DDaT roles or considering entering the profession. It is intended to build skills and confidence, avoid duplicated development by creating shared core learning, and provide consistent, accessible training aligned with national frameworks and standards, including the DDaT capability framework and NHS Service Standard.

The procurement is complete and the contract is active. NHS England used a below-threshold limited competition. EL Healthcare Education was selected as supplier. The contract was signed on 29 September 2026 and runs from 29 September 2026 to 29 January 2027. Its value is £92,000 excluding VAT (£110,400 including VAT). The procurement was organised as one lot. The published contracting data does not set out evaluation criteria.

This award shows NHS England’s demand for introductory, NHS-specific learning in digital, data and technology, particularly product and delivery and user-centred design. Suppliers credible for a similar requirement would need to develop accessible, consistent on-demand learning that builds skills and confidence among newcomers, and aligns content with the DDaT capability framework and NHS Service Standard. The work also favours an approach that creates reusable core learning for use across the NHS, rather than duplicating effort across the system.
