## Summary

Health Education England is conducting a public procurement process for the provision of a short-term outcome evaluation of a competency framework aimed at facilitating and consenting patients for genomic testing. The tender, titled "Provision of a short-term outcome evaluation of a competency framework to facilitate and consent patients for genomic testing," falls within the health and social work services category. The procurement method is an open procedure, with the tender period ending on 16th December 2019. The contract period is set to commence on 1st January 2020 and conclude on 31st March 2020, with an estimated value of £20,000.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses engaged in evaluation services, particularly those specialising in healthcare and genomic testing. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to compete, especially those capable of conducting communication strategy assessments and evaluating competency frameworks in healthcare settings. This engagement could help businesses expand their portfolios and enhance their capabilities in the health sector through collaboration with Health Education England.

## Notice

We are inviting bids from interested parties for the delivery of an evaluation of the competency framework to facilitate consenting patients for genomic testing. This evaluation will cover short term outcomes only, including: A. Assessing the communication strategy for the framework, including whether potential users are aware of the framework and how they came to learn about it. B. Assessing how services are or are planning to utilise the framework, with a focus on early adopters (e.g. trainers and healthcare professionals that are involved in facilitating and consenting patients for genomic tests). This will include how the baseline level of competence of users is assessed; who the target audience(s) are; and who and what resources are intended to be used to support healthcare professionals to meet these competencies. C. Identifying the additional resources or requirements that service users would request from the GEP to support the use of this framework.
