Description
NHS England is seeking to commission Process Outsourcing Services to support the delivery of the Centre for Advancing Practice ePortfolio (Supported) Route. The Centre for Advancing Practice is procuring external support to ensure the continued delivery, quality, and scalability of its national recognition and quality assurance functions for advanced and consultant level practitioners. Increasing demand for these services, combined with internal workforce capacity constraints, has created a requirement for an experienced supplier to provide additional operational, academic, and technical capacity. The appointed supplier will be required to support delivery across the following three core service areas: • The ePortfolio (Supported) Route • Reviewer and subject matter expert infrastructure • Implementation and ongoing management of digital badges The supplier will provide end to end operational, administrative, and quality assurance support for the Centre for Advancing Practice’s recognition and assurance functions. This will include, but is not limited to: • Delivery of a fair, consistent, and high quality ePortfolio (Supported) Route • Management and coordination of a multi professional reviewer and expert workforce • Secure implementation and ongoing administration of digital badges via the Centre’s portal Collectively, this support will ensure that practitioners have timely access to national recognition pathways and that national standards for advanced and consultant level practice are maintained. Contract Term and Value The contract will be awarded for an initial term of two (2) years, with the option to extend for a further one (1) year. The estimated contract value is up to £300,000 per annum (excluding VAT); and up to £900,000 (excluding VAT) for the full contract term, inclusive of any permitted extension period. Any Tender submission that exceeds this maximum total contract value will be rejected and not evaluated further. The selected supplier is expected to commence service delivery in early July 2026.
