This tender, titled "Video conferencing with partners and NHS," is situated within the healthcare industry and is based in London, England. The key milestone to note is the engagement end date, which is set for 30th September 2019. The Academy requires a solution that can operate on NHS N3/HSCN/SWAN networks while offering full interoperability with various communication systems including WebRTC, H323, SIP, and Skype for Business. This procurement represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in video conferencing technology, particularly those with capabilities to bridge secure connections across diverse networks. Businesses that focus on scalable and efficient communication solutions will be particularly well-suited to compete for this tender. Candidates should note that hardware acquisition is not a part of this procurement exercise, thus emphasising the importance of software solutions tailored to meet the specific interoperability and security requirements of this project. ## Notice The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges (the Academy) is the coordinating body for the 24 medical Royal Colleges and Faculties across the UK and Ireland. We ensure that patients are safely and properly cared for by setting standards for the way doctors are educated, trained and monitored throughout their careers. As a national health charity, the Academy supports key partnerships across the four nations including NHS, HEE and the charity sector. We are looking for a video conferencing service that helps staff teams work, meet and collaborate effectively, through a convenient, scalable and secure conferencing solution. Ideally the service must be support NHS N3/HSCN/SWAN hosted conferencing with full endpoint interoperability including WebRTC, H323, SIP, Skype for Business, mobile and audio. Critically, the Academy sits outside the NHS N3/HSCN/SWAN networks. Therefore the provider must be able to provide an secure bridge to enable this access. Please note: We are not looking purchasing hardware as part of this procurement exercise. Additional information: Please note: Please email any expressions of interest and clearly address the key requirements. Any other types of approach will not be acceptable. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 30 Aug 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 31 Aug 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | THE ACADEMY OF MEDICAL ROYAL COLLEGES | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | EC1V 0DB | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI43 Haringey and Islington | | Local authority | Islington | | Electoral ward | Bunhill | | Westminster constituency | Islington South and Finsbury | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems ### Codes - 48515000 - Video conferencing software package ## Release History - 30 Aug 2019 at 09:40 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 - 27 Aug 2019 at 09:45 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 - 21 Aug 2019 at 15:30 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 - 21 Aug 2019 at 08:56 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 - 20 Aug 2019 at 08:39 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 - 20 Aug 2019 at 08:18 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 - 19 Aug 2019 at 13:06 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 - 19 Aug 2019 at 11:15 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5092e0ba-4db6-45b1-a4a8-62742d6a3428 30th August 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.aomrc.org.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
