## Summary

The East Of England NHS Collaborative Hub is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process initiated as a tender for Training & Development Services. This procurement aims to support publicly funded organisations with comprehensive training frameworks that address developmental needs across health and social care. The procurement is structured under the UK Procurement Act 2023 and adopts a light-touch regime, catering to diverse areas such as leadership, communication, and patient safety.

Situated in Fulbourn, Cambridge, the contracting authority is a central government public authority that seeks to engage service providers adept in the specified categories with a future market engagement closing on 31st March 2025.

This procurement presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses specialising in education and training services, including higher education, coaching, and vocational training. With the framework anticipated to facilitate both direct awards and further competitions, businesses, particularly SMEs and VCSEs, that can provide innovative solutions for mentoring, management training, and e-learning are particularly well-suited to take part. By participating, companies can significantly expand their service offerings and market reach within integrated care systems and support teams across the NHS ecosystem, aligning with strategic goals for health and social care transformation in the UK.

## Notice

The Training and Development Services framework caters to the needs of publicly funded organisations, offering comprehensive support for development, skills learning, and change management. The framework addresses day-to-day training needs and provides a platform for navigating the evolving health and social care landscape, supporting integrated care boards and fostering collaborative working opportunities. The current framework covers various areas such as mentoring, leadership, communication skills, and patient safety. The framework will be restructured in the new iteration, expanding to include new requirements to support NHSE and ICB procurement teams. EOE NHS CPH are proposing a Framework which will run under the Procurement Act 2023, and will opened at least twice during the course (2+2+2+2). The open framework route also allows for Contracting Authorities to call-off via direct award or further competition.
