## Summary

The procurement process concerns the awarding of a contract titled "R&D Tax Relief Support Workshops" by NHS Shared Business Services Ltd (NHS SBS). This initiative falls under the "Education and training services" category and is located in the North West region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method employed was an open procedure, culminating in contract award on 8th March 2019. The contract period commences on 8th March 2019 and is set to conclude on 31st March 2020, providing support for businesses to apply for R&D tax relief through workshops aimed at enhancing their capabilities in this area.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations looking to expand their services in education and training. Companies with expertise in facilitating workshops and providing guidance on tax relief schemes would be particularly well-suited to compete. Engaging in such procurement can not only enhance their service offerings but also foster connections with other businesses within the region, thus contributing to overall business growth.

## Notice

We intend to help those businesses identified as eligible through the ERDF Projects to apply for Research & Development tax relief through the provision of knowledge and clear guidance in how to make a claim, and to help these businesses to fulfil a claim, enabling them to free up resource to further develop Research & Development capacity. The support provided will be delivered using a workshop format and each workshop should have a direct impact on (1) helping participants to understand the R&D tax relief scheme and, most importantly, (2) to help them to complete their claim during the workshop session itself.
