## Summary

NHS England intends to procure cadaveric and simulation-based education and training services for trainees in the East of England. The requirement is focused on delivering practical training using cadaveric material and simulated clinical environments, supporting the development of trainees in the region. The contracting authority is NHS England, a central government public authority, and the service is intended for the East of England region. This is a professional education and training service rather than a supply-only purchase or construction project. Suppliers with suitable facilities, teaching resources and experience delivering cadaveric or simulation training to healthcare trainees are likely to find the scope relevant when the procurement reaches the market.

This procurement is at the planning stage: NHS England has stated an intention to procure and has not yet issued an invitation to tender. The expected procedure is an above-threshold open procedure under the light-touch regime. The planned contract has one lot and is expected to run from 1 June 2027 to 31 May 2030, with a possible extension to 30 April 2032. Its estimated value is £3.6 million, including gross value, in total for the procurement. NHS England expects the next notice to be published on 1 November 2026. An RFI has been published as part of market engagement, so suppliers should treat this as an early opportunity to prepare rather than a current bidding exercise.

The requirement is likely to suit organisations that provide specialist medical education, cadaveric teaching, surgical or clinical simulation, or related training services. Relevant suppliers may include specialist training providers, teaching hospitals, universities, medical education companies and organisations with established simulation facilities. Strong preparation would involve demonstrating access to appropriate cadaveric resources and simulated clinical environments, together with the staff and teaching expertise needed to train healthcare professionals. Experience designing and delivering structured programmes for trainees in a regional or multi-site setting is likely to be useful. The procurement expressly identifies the lot as suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises and voluntary, community or social enterprises, widening the potential supplier base.
