Notice Information
Notice Title
Processing of Medical Evidence
Notice Description
Greater Manchester Police (GMP) are looking to procure a service to manage the end-to-end process of requesting, collection and delivery of Medical Evidence to support victims and leading to better outcomes in court. GMP raise between 1,000 and 1,500 request per year for Medical Evidence to support prosecutions and provide vital evidence to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS). GMP are looking for an end-to-end managed service that avoids officers having to deal with over 100 separate medical institutions around the Greater Manchester area, offering instead a single service provider. The status of all requests will be visible via a central portal. The purpose of a managed service is to automate the process from the Investigating Officer, through to completion of the Third Party Material consent. Then to use a service provider to centrally collect, collate and complete the necessary MG11 and MG22 forms required to submit evidence to the CPS.
Planning Information
Prior to any procurement process, GMP is undertaking a period of preliminary market engagement. Interested parties are invited to complete a short questionnaire which will allow GMP to better understand the current market, assist the Force in the development of the final specification and identify the most appropriate route to market. It should be noted that tender documents have not yet been issued for this contract. The full specification will be made available at the start of any subsequent procurement process. Following a review of questionnaire responses, GMP may invite one or more suppliers to discuss their offering in more detail. To register an interest in this preliminary market engagement process and to receive a copy of the questionnaire, please email procurement@gmp.police.uk. Please quote the reference 'A1235' on all correspondence. Clarifications may also be sought using the same address. To ensure transparency rules are adhered to, no correspondence should be entered into with any GMP employee or contractor about this requirement, other than as stated above.
