This tender, classified under the education and training services industry (CPV code: 80000000), is in the tender stage with a submission deadline set for 17 September 2021, at 12:00 BST. The contract period is scheduled to commence on 1 October 2021 and will extend until 31 October 2022. The procurement method is a limited process through competitive quotations, with a contract value of £87,564. The tender is based in Leeds, UK, with potential delivery locations spanning British Overseas Territories, Channel Islands, Europe, and the Isle of Man. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in training and development, particularly those that focus on healthcare leadership and nursing. Companies that offer tailored leadership programmes or staff training services, as well as those experienced in supporting healthcare professionals, will find this tender well-suited to their capabilities. Engaging in this procurement process could foster growth by positioning a business as a key contributor to the NHS's efforts to strengthen its nursing leadership pipeline. ## Notice Nursing, midwifery, and health visiting constitute the largest professional group within the NHS, however there is a lack of tangible opportunities for them to gain experience of strategic influence at nation level. To bridge this gap, the CNO for England is proposing an ongoing cohort of CNO Senior Clinical Nurse Fellows. These CNO Senior Clinical Nurse Fellow roles would offer a mechanism to bridge the existing gap between senior nurse leadership at a trust level to senior leadership at a strategic national level. The placement of these roles within the national and regional CNO team would be an opportunity for a cadre of nurse leaders to influence and deliver policy and strategic objectives with the support, mentorship, and networks of team CNO. These posts would support the existing direction of travel for development of the leadership pipeline whist also providing a tangible sign to the profession that nurses are valued at both an operational and strategic level of the NHS for England. This would provide a lived example of the intent of the NHS People Plan to value, retain, and develop nurses at all levels. NHSEI are looking to commission a bespoke, evaluated leadership development programme with the aim to equip senior clinical nurse fellows with the resource to understand themselves and how they make sense of the environment in order to enhance their personal leadership effectiveness in line with the new ICS architecture.
