This open procedure procurement, which falls under the services industry category, has an award notice dated 25th March 2022. The training will encompass up to two courses annually for a total of 40 appraisers, with courses anticipated to be held in April and September each year at locations such as Defence Medical Services in Whittington and possibly RAF High Wycombe. The contract period is set from 1st April 2022 to 31st March 2025, with an estimated value of £27,000.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for organisations specialising in educational services, particularly those with experience in training medical professionals. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, especially if they can offer flexible training methods, including virtual formats. Businesses equipped to deliver high-quality training services and adept at meeting NHS regulations will find this a suitable procurement process to expand their clientele and enhance their market presence within the healthcare educational sector.

Each course must be able accommodate a minimum of 15 trainees and up to a maximum of 25 trainees in a face to face classroom environment. At the agreement of both the Authority and the Contractor a virtual course may replace a face to face course. It is anticipated courses will take place in April and September.
