## Summary

NHS England is currently undertaking a tender process for "Responsible Officer Training" within the education and training services industry, aimed at enhancing compliance with the Medical Profession (Responsible Officers) Regulations 2010 and 2013. The tender period is set to conclude on 16 February 2018. This opportunity focuses on developing training materials in partnership with NHS England, and the total budget for this contract is £200,000. The training is designed to serve delegates from approximately 700 organisations employing doctors across both the NHS and private sector in England, with the delivery addresses covering multiple regions including the UK and British Overseas Territories. The contract period is scheduled to commence on 2 April 2018 and conclude on 31 March 2022.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community sector enterprises (VCSEs) specialising in educational services to engage with a major public health initiative. Businesses that excel in developing training programs, especially those with expertise in regulatory compliance within the healthcare sector, would be particularly well-suited to compete. Collaborating with NHS England to provide effective training can not only expand their client portfolio but also enhance their reputation in the public procurement market.

## Notice

The Authority wishes to engage the services of a suitably qualified partner in order to provide proper support for implementation of the Medical Profession (Responsible Officers) Regulations 2010 and 2013 (MPRO). The aim is that trainees are left knowing how to ensure that the organisations they work for and with can comply with the statute. Delegates will come from approximately 700 organisations that employ doctors in England, both within the NHS and the private sector. Section 13M of the National Health Services Act 2006 places a statutory responsibility on NHS England to have regard to the need to promote education and training for those persons who are employed in providing health services in England. The training provider will develop the training materials and course content in partnership with NHS England but orders and payment under this contract will come directly from the delegate organisations. Those suppliers wishing to participate in this tender should register on NHS England's eProcurement platform https://nhsengland.bravosolution.co.uk/web/login.html where they will be able to read the tender documents and submit a tender should they wish to do so.
