UK4 - Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

NHS England is seeking a supplier to provide quality assurance and improvement for structured learning placement modules used in GP specialty training. The work is intended to support trainee capacity and delivery of the training curriculum. It is an evaluation consultancy service, covering the review and improvement of the learning modules rather than the provision of GP training itself. The buying organisation is NHS England. The procurement is organised as a single lot, and the stated work relates to the structured learning placement modules; no specific delivery location is identified. The requirement is suitable for small and medium-sized businesses and for voluntary, community and social enterprises.

NHS England invited offers through an open competition under a below-threshold procedure. The tender deadline was 3 November 2026 at 09:00, and the deadline for enquiries was 26 October 2026 at 15:00. The contract period was set to run from 30 November 2026 to 31 March 2027. The estimated value is £98,000 excluding VAT (£117,600 including VAT). Bids are evaluated on a 30% price and 70% quality basis; social value accounts for 10% of the quality weighting. The procurement is divided into one lot.

This opportunity suits evaluation and quality-improvement consultancies with experience relevant to GP specialty training, structured learning placements or healthcare education. Suppliers should be able to assess learning modules and recommend improvements that support trainee capacity and curriculum delivery. The emphasis on quality in the evaluation favours a strong, well-evidenced approach to the work, while the dedicated social-value weighting means bidders should be able to demonstrate relevant social value in their proposal. The single-lot requirement is suitable for a supplier able to deliver the quality-assurance and improvement work as one package. Small and medium-sized businesses and voluntary, community and social enterprises are expressly identified as suitable competitors.
