## Summary

The Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust is seeking suppliers for its "Food Safety Learning & Auditing Programme," categorized under education and training services. This procurement process is currently in the award stage, with the contract, valued at £95,000, having been published on 26th February 2019. The contract period begins on 1st April 2019 and runs until 31st March 2022. The programme includes designing a tailored learning scheme and on-site food safety auditing and is located in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The tender was conducted using an open procedure, with submissions required electronically via the Procontract e-Tendering portal before the closure date of 8th January 2019.

This opportunity presents substantial growth prospects for businesses specialising in training services, particularly those with experience in the food safety sector and a solid understanding of the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH) syllabus. Companies equipped to deliver comprehensive education and auditing solutions, including both large training providers and niche agencies focused on food safety, will find themselves well-positioned to compete for this contract, which aims to reinforce best practices in food preparation and catering operations within the NHS framework.

## Notice

The purpose of this contract is to design and deliver a tailored learning programme for staff working across Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust, in line with the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH) syllabus, to support development of underpinning knowledge for safe food preparation / catering operations across the organisation. We also seek a supplier to take forward our food safety on site auditing programme. Whilst the contract is offered in two lots, reflecting these distinct elements, we are keen to support transfer of learning between our audit and teaching programmes, to appropriately reinforce best practice and support any required improvement. Additional information: This procurement process will be conducted entirely via self-service downloading of all documentation and submission in electronic format only (unless otherwise requested) through the Procontract e-Tendering portal. In order for the Trust to capture an accurate record of the activity relating to this tender, please ensure that all communication, questions, comments and points of clarification are raised via the messaging function within Procontract.
