## Summary

The General Medical Council (GMC) has recently completed a tender process for "Corporate Soft Skills Training," aiming to develop and deliver a Corporate Development Programme over a three-year period. This procurement, categorised under training services, had a total contract value estimated at GBP 600,000. The contract is expected to benefit about 1,200 employees across various locations in the United Kingdom, including Scotland, North West, Wales, Northern Ireland, and London. The award was made on 23rd July 2018, following an open procurement method that concluded on 1st January 2018.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in corporate training and development services. Companies that focus on soft skills training, particularly those capable of delivering workshops and tailored developmental programmes, would be well-positioned to compete for future contracts of this nature. The GMC's commitment to staff development indicates ongoing demand in this sector, making it an attractive prospect for small to medium enterprises looking to expand their client base within the public sector.

## Notice

We will appoint a supplier who can work with us in developing and delivering our Corporate Development Programme for soft skills development over a three year period. We want to encourage our staff to 'Learn to Learn' and take the lead on their own career development with their line manager. We anticipate the value of the contract to be no more than GBP 600,000, though this is subject to change and the GMC makes no commitment to spending this value. The GMC has in the region of 1200 employees, each of which will attend one of more workshops over the life of the contract.
