Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Somerset NHS Foundation Trust procured a learning management system and associated system support services. The system is for the Trust, with delivery in Somerset. The procurement was made through the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud 14 framework. The requirement is relevant to suppliers providing learning management platforms and the support needed to operate them, particularly those able to serve an NHS foundation trust. Think Associates Ltd, based in Brighton, was selected as the supplier.

The procurement is complete and the contract was awarded to Think Associates Ltd through a direct award from the G-Cloud 14 framework, following a shortlisting process. The award date and contract period are not stated in the available process details; the contract was signed on 31 March 2026. The contract value is £46,310. The process comprised one lot, with price identified as the award criterion. One bid was recorded. The lot is marked cancelled, while the award and contract are recorded as active; the published outcome identifies Think Associates Ltd as the selected supplier.

This award shows Somerset NHS Foundation Trust buying a learning management system through the G-Cloud framework and selecting a supplier following shortlisting, with price stated as the award criterion. Suppliers seeking to compete for a comparable requirement should be able to provide a learning platform together with dependable system support, and demonstrate that the service can meet the needs of an NHS trust. Familiarity with the G-Cloud route and the ability to satisfy its shortlisting requirements would be relevant. The recorded contract is relatively small in scale, so suppliers should be able to deliver the system and its support efficiently at that level, while presenting a competitive price. The contract provides a concrete example of this buyer’s purchasing route and requirement.
