Non- Medical Integrated Clinical Academic Careers - Health Education England

Tender description

Health Education England (HEE - the Commissioner) are putting out this notice as a PIN (Prior Information Notice) with a view to completing a Direct Award. Please note the contracting authority intends to direct award the contracts to City University and Kingston University/St. Georges University of London for a short period of time while it determines the authority's commissioning intentions. The case for direct award can be found on the tender portal. HEE believe that these universities have the proven academic and technical expertise to support these programmes in 2020/21. To our knowledge they are the only providers of these programmes in London. To test the market HEE had intended to undertake a formal procurement process for these programmes in April 2020 but due to the current national Covid-19 situation this was not appropriate or permissible. It is envisaged that while the current specifications are underway in 2020/21, an open procurement process will be undertaken for work to be started in 2021 onwards (2-3 years). The contract period will be a maximum value of £300,000. For the Specification, Contract and the Case for Direct Award please access the portal at: https://procontract.due-north.com/Opportunities/Index?p=40bb618e-0a24-e611-8114-000c29c9ba21&v=2 Project title: Non- Medical Integrated Clinical Academic Careers - Health Education England Please access the portal for all documents.
