## Summary

The General Medical Council (GMC) is currently inviting tenders for the "State of Medical Practice Barometer Survey," which falls under the research services category. This procurement is taking place across various locations in the United Kingdom, including Scotland, North West, South East, Northern Ireland, and London. The tender is in the planning stage, with proposals due by 5 April 2019. The total contract value is estimated at £80,000, with a minimum value of £60,000. The project aims to measure and track key indicators of medical practice annually, with the first year's survey set to commence on 24 April 2019 and concluding by 31 December 2019. The procurement method employed is an open procedure, which is below the threshold.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly SMEs, looking to expand their services in research and data collection. Companies with expertise in conducting comprehensive surveys and a strong understanding of the healthcare sector would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. Engaging with this tender can help businesses establish or enhance their relationships with the GMC while contributing vital insights into the medical profession in the UK.

## Notice

The research aims to measure and track the state of medical practice in the UK through a set of key indicators on an annual basis. This will allow us to report on changes in doctors' career intentions, experiences in the workplace, and frequency of adaptions to pressurised environments, and provide this in the context of their scope of practice. Whilst the intention is for this work to be undertaken annually, it should be noted that we are only currently tendering for the first year of this work.
