## Summary

NHS England has completed the procurement process titled "C338671 Nat.427 GMTS VAC Assessors 2025 Keane" to provide staffing for GMTS Assessment Centres. This project aims to maintain the operation of virtual Assessment Centres from January to March 2025, addressing reduced NHS staff availability during the winter. This selective procurement method, carried out through a call-off from a framework agreement, falls under the industry category of staff training services (CPV code 80511000). Key dates include the end of the tender period on 3rd February 2025, with the contract starting on 20th February 2025 and concluding on 31st March 2025. The procurement value is £9,625 GBP. The virtual Assessment Centres will serve various locations including the United Kingdom and international regions.

This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses focused on providing training and assessment services, particularly those experienced with virtual platforms. Despite being primarily targeted at organisations supporting voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), this opportunity was ultimately awarded to an SME, Keane Training Associates Limited. Businesses with expertise in remote training solutions and familiarity with the specific operational challenges within the NHS will find this tender beneficial for growth. It represents a chance to establish a foothold in the public sector by delivering critical services during a high-demand period.

## Notice

For the provision of staffing for GMTS Assessment Centres, arrangements will be made to utilise the Faculty Framework. This ensures the continued operation of virtual Assessment Centres from January to March 2025, amid reduced NHS staff availability during the winter period.
