## Summary

The NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) is seeking to establish a Learning and Development Framework through a selective procurement method under a restricted procedure. This initiative, classified under education and training services, aims to fulfil the training needs of NHSBT and its affiliates across the UK. The tender period is set to conclude on 22nd June 2018, with contracts expected to commence on 1st November 2018 and run until 31st October 2021. The training will be divided into several lots, covering various areas, including behavioural skills, IT training, and first aid training, with delivery required across multiple regions in the UK, including the North East, London, and South West, among others.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for training providers, especially those specialising in healthcare education, management training, and IT services. Businesses that can offer innovative and effective learning solutions, particularly in skilled training for healthcare professionals, should consider engaging with this tender. The framework will allow successful bidders to build long-lasting relationships within the NHS sector, enhancing their credibility and providing a pathway for future contracts while contributing to the vital training needs of organisations operating within the healthcare space.

## Notice

NHSBT is an Arm's Length Body of the Department of Health employing approx. 5,650 people across the UK. We are an NHS organisation responsible for the provision of safe and efficient blood and blood products to the NHS. In addition we provide Organ Donation and Tissues services to the NHS and other sectors. NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT) is a Special Health Authority, dedicated to saving and improving lives by providing a wide range of services to the NHS. NHSBT is a unique and diverse organisation. We bring together all forms of donation in one organisation. In some parts, such as organ donation, we work across the UK. In others, such as blood donation, we operate in England only. In some specialist areas, such as stem cells, we are part of a global network. We employ a range of professions which includes Health Care Professionals (Clinicians and Nurses), Health Care Assistants (trained staff who look after the donor through the donation process), Clinical Scientists, Biomedical Scientists, Laboratory Assistants, Administrators and Drivers. Some of these operate on a shift system and in some departments we operate a 24/7 operation. The nature of our work also requires our workforce to work often in remote or off site settings. As an example we have 65 teams on average collecting blood at sessions in church halls, leisure centres and other public sites per day. We also have Specialist Nurses in Organ Donation embedded within 171 Trusts across the country working on their own with wider NHS Teams facilitating the donation process, seeking consent and working with our donor families. This all leads to a complex process for ensuring our staff are supported and communicated with, also providing additional complexity in maintaining required levels of training and continuous professional development. The organisation is comprised of four Operating Divisions: Blood Supply, Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services, Organ Donation and Group Services. NHSBT is looking to establish a framework of contractors for the Learning and Development function, specified by individual 'lots' which will service and fulfil the training needs of NHSBT and organisations within the Arm's Length Body family. Lot 1 - Provision of Behavioural Skills Training including leadership and management modules Lot 2 - Provision of IT Training Lot 3 - Provision of Associates to support Organisational Development. Lot 4 - Provision Diversity and Staff Engagement Development and Training. Lot 5 - Provision of Manual Handling training Lot 6 - Provision of First Aid Training. Lot 7 - Provision of Simulation Training for Clinicians and Healthcare Professionals Lot 8 - Provision of Clinical Supervision for Nurses Additional information: If you wish to express an interest in this tender, please can you register on the ePortal (Bravo Solutions) as per the instructions below.
