## Summary

The procurement process involves the Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, which is seeking to establish an International Recruitment Programme for the supply of 120 qualified and trained nurses over a two-year period. This tender, titled "International Recruitment of Nurses," falls under the industry category of placement services of personnel (CPV code 79610000). The tender is currently in the active stage, with submissions due by 4 June 2018, and the contract period commencing on 25 June 2018 and concluding on 24 June 2020. Delivery addresses for this contract extend across the UK and several other regions including British Overseas Territories and Europe.

This opportunity can significantly benefit businesses involved in recruitment services, particularly those that specialise in healthcare recruitment or have a strong network for sourcing qualified nursing professionals internationally. Small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that meet the specified qualifications would be particularly well-suited to compete, as they can provide the necessary agility and tailored services that large organisations may not. Engaging in this tender process could lead to long-term partnerships and expanded market opportunities for contracted firms in the healthcare sector.
