## Summary

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) recently completed a procurement process for the provision of Acoustic Consultant Services related to refurbishment works at 23 Portland Place, London (W1B 1PZ). The procurement method used was a limited competitive quotation, with a contract value of £20,040 in GBP. The tender period ended on July 5, 2023, with the contract period starting on July 17, 2023, and ending on December 31, 2027. The NMC is the buying organisation, and the main procurement category falls under services.

This tender presents an opportunity for businesses, especially those providing sound insulation and room acoustics consultancy services, to engage with the NMC. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are considered suitable for this tender, while voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are not the target. Businesses should consider the specific acoustic criteria required, such as sound insulation, background noise levels, and reverberation times, tailored to the location and functional area described in the project. The competitive nature of the tender process allows for a diverse range of suppliers to participate and potentially grow their business through successful contract awards.
