## Summary

The Department for Work & Pensions bought a digital leadership learning resource focused on emotional intelligence, classified as staff training services (CPV 80511000). It comprises 16 short online videos: an introductory module and coverage of all 15 competencies in the EQ-i 2.0 model. The content applies emotional intelligence to leadership and includes communication and relationship management, resilience and wellbeing, and personal development planning aligned with assessment outcomes. A premium licence provides unlimited organisational access and unlimited users. Delivery is across England, covering the North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East and South West.

The procurement is complete and awarded to PSYSOFT LIMITED. The Department for Work & Pensions used a direct award below the applicable threshold, without competition. The contract was signed on 16 October 2026 and runs from 17 October to 16 December 2026. Its value is £69,000 excluding VAT and £82,800 including VAT. There was one lot, and the contract is active. The requirement was for an EQ-i 2.0-based resource covering the full competency model, leadership application and the specified development topics; the award outcome identifies PSYSOFT LIMITED as the selected supplier.

This award shows demand from the Department for Work & Pensions for scalable, digital emotional-intelligence training for leadership development, with organisational access for unlimited users. Suppliers competing for a comparable requirement would need a ready-to-use online learning resource grounded in the EQ-i 2.0 model, with concise video modules covering all 15 competencies as well as an introduction. Credible provision would also need to translate the model into leadership practice, address communication and relationship management, resilience and wellbeing, and support personal development planning linked to assessment outcomes. The buyer selected a specialist training supplier through a below-threshold direct award without competition, so a future competitor would need to demonstrate a strong fit to this complete content specification and the capacity to license it for organisation-wide use.
