## Summary

The procurement process initiated by NHS England focuses on implementing QIS (Qualified in Specialty) education within the Kent, Surrey, and Sussex Neonatal Operational Delivery Networks (ODNs). It is classified under the "Education and training services" industry category with a total contract value of £48,000. The procurement method was a direct, single-tender action (below threshold), resulting in an active award to MEDWAY NHS FOUNDATION TRUST. Key dates include the tender end date on 22nd September 2024 and the contract period from 23rd September 2024 to 31st March 2025. The location for the service delivery is within the United Kingdom.

This tender provides significant potential for business growth, specifically for organisations specialising in education and training services within the healthcare sector. Given the direct procurement method, this opportunity would best suit specialised firms with previous experience in delivering neonatal educational standards and those already engaged with NHS operational delivery networks. The awarded contract, although already secured by MEDWAY NHS FOUNDATION TRUST, highlights the importance of niche expertise in securing future tenders within this specialised field. Businesses aiming to enter this market should focus on developing robust, specialised educational programs aligned with national healthcare standards.
