## Summary

NHS England commissioned The NHS Alliance to develop onboarding resources tailored to NHS chairs and provide leadership development support for newly appointed NHS chairs. This is a national education and training service, intended to help new chairs take up their roles and develop their leadership capability. The buying organisation is NHS England, and the stated national scope indicates the work is for NHS chairs across England. The service combines practical, chair-specific onboarding materials with leadership development support rather than general training alone.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded to The NHS Alliance, which also signed the contract. NHS England used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 1 October 2026 and runs from 5 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. Its value is £16,500 excluding VAT (£19,800 including VAT). There was one lot, covering the national chair onboarding and leadership support service. No evaluation basis or participation requirements are stated in the available procurement details.

For suppliers considering similar work for NHS England, this award shows demand for a focused package of onboarding resources and leadership development for newly appointed NHS chairs, delivered nationally. A credible provider would need to understand the chair role and the NHS context, and be able to turn that knowledge into practical, role-specific onboarding materials alongside relevant leadership support. The work was awarded directly without competition, so the selected provider’s fit with this specialised requirement is commercially instructive; competing providers would need to demonstrate comparable subject knowledge and the ability to deliver a coherent national service. The modest, time-limited nature of the engagement points to a defined specialist assignment rather than a large-scale training programme.
