This initiative falls under the services category, specifically focused on research and development, and is located in Leeds, England. The tender is currently in the active stage with submissions due by 26th November 2018 at 14:00 hours. The contract is set to commence on 3rd December 2018 and will span an initial two-year period, valued at £400,000. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in e-portfolio solutions, software development, and support services tailored for healthcare professionals. Companies that can provide a flexible and comprehensive platform to facilitate advanced clinical practice are particularly well-suited to compete. Prospective suppliers should have a strong user community, proven product functionality, and the capacity to adapt to evolving user needs as the contract may extend or be re-procured following the initial term. ## Notice HEE wishes to enter into a contract with an organization to provide an e-portfolio service for an initial two years for a number of groups of learners/professionals working towards and beyond ACP recognition in a number of specialties. Significantly, this is a new approach and we will be piloting, learning from and iterating based on user experience. We will be flexible about the solution to our proposal and expect the successful supplier to be flexible and responsive to our developing requirements. Subject to what we learn during the first two years of operation, we are likely to seek either extension or re-procurement of the e-portfolio contract. We are looking for a well-established product with abundant functionality (some of which we may not have thought of ourselves) and a strong client/user community, run by an organisation with extensive experience in supporting (and capacity to support) clients and end users. a. Number of learners We do not, nor do we expect to, have an exact number of learners who will use the ACP e-portfolio.
