## Summary

The recent procurement process facilitated by NHS England focused on the "Virtual and Hybrid Learning Faculty (VHLF)" initiative. This process, classified under the "Education and Training Services" industry category, spanned across locations in London and involved a contract that was initially awarded to People-star Limited, a small to medium enterprise situated in Buckinghamshire.
