The East Midlands Team aims to realise a range of benefits by undertaking this procurement and for a number of stakeholders involved in GPST training. These include: a) The East Midlands Team will only have to work with a single Lead Employer for their area, leaving the East Midlands Team free to manage the programmes, the finances and any potential trainees in difficulty; b) GPSTs will only have one Lead Employer during the course of their training, reducing the risk of duplication and confusion and resulting in the provision of consistent employment and human resource services throughout their training period; c) Clinicians, including Primary Care Leads, Training Programme Directors and Patch Associate Directors, will also have only one Lead Employer to work with in their areas, streamlining communications and making clearer Lead Employer and Commissioner roles and responsibilities; and d) Such arrangements need to result in the delivery of the highest quality services and demonstrate Value for Money (VfM) This procurement is being conducted as an open procedure under the Light Touch Regime. https://in-tendhost.co.uk/leicspart/aspx/Projects/Current/ Suppliers will need to register on the In-Tend e-tendering system unless already registered.
