The work is intended to align the programmes with the new Management and Leadership Framework standards and competencies. This is a leadership development and education service requirement (CPV 80000000). The buyer is NHS England. The procurement covers a single lot for the programme refresh; the published details do not identify a separate delivery location. NHS England invited offers through a below-threshold open competition. The process reached tender, with completed submissions due by 30 November 2026 at 12:00 noon and questions due by 12 November 2026 at 12:00 noon. The planned contract period runs from 11 January to 31 March 2027, with an optional six-month extension, subject to review and approval, to 30 September 2027. The maximum budget is £320,000 excluding VAT (£384,000 including VAT); the extension is stated to be at zero value. One lot is evaluated on technical quality (60%), commercial (30%) and social value (10%). This opportunity is suited to providers able to review and redesign established leadership development programmes and align their content with a defined management and leadership framework. Bidders will need to demonstrate a strong technical approach, as technical quality carries the greatest evaluation weighting, alongside a credible commercial offer and contribution to social value. The work spans three named programmes, so relevant experience in leadership development, programme design and content refresh across multiple offerings would be useful. Suppliers should be able to deliver the initial commission within the stated contract period and accommodate a possible extension if approved. The requirement may suit specialist learning and development consultancies, education and training providers, or teams combining leadership expertise with curriculum and learning-content design capabilities. ## Notice NHS England (NHSE) are commencing a tender process to identify a supplier who can support a refresh, design and content of three well established leadership development programmes (Edward Jenner, Mary Seacole and Rosalind Franklin Programmes) so that they align with the new Management and Leadership Framework standards and competencies.
