## Summary

The General Medical Council (GMC) is currently seeking a supplier for its "Corporate Soft Skills Training" tender, aimed at enhancing the development of its staff over a three-year period. The contract, valued at up to £600,000, falls under the training services industry category and covers multiple regions across the UK, including Scotland, North West England, Wales, Northern Ireland, and London. The tender is in the active stage and is open for submissions until 30th May 2018, with the contract expected to commence on 2nd July 2018 and conclude by 1st July 2020.

This opportunity presents significant potential for businesses specialising in staff training and development, particularly those experienced in delivering corporate soft skills programmes. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, given that the GMC encourages innovation and personalised approaches in training. Firms that can demonstrate flexibility and a strong track record in similar training initiatives will have a competitive advantage in this open procurement process.

## 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.
