This tender is currently in the Planning stage and is expected to culminate in a Direct Award to the existing supplier, FourteenFish. The tender period closes at midday on 4th January 2022, with the contract scheduled to begin on 1st April 2022 and run until 31st March 2023. The estimated value of the contract ranges from £69,332 to £207,996, depending on any extensions. This opportunity is targeted at service providers in the education and training services category, specifically those with capabilities in online learning and medical education. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the educational technology and healthcare training sectors, particularly for those specialising in online learning platforms. Companies that have experience in developing bespoke educational resources or platforms tailored for medical professionals would be ideally positioned to compete. With a focus on continuity and expertise, firms that demonstrate capability in delivering comprehensive training solutions and developing interactive portfolio tools will likely find this procurement appealing for fostering business growth. ## Notice Health Education England (HEE - the Commissioner) are putting out this notice as a PIN (Prior Information Notice) with a view to completing a Direct Award. Please note the contracting authority intends to direct award the contract to FourteenFish. The case for direct award can be found on the tender portal. Doctors on the International Induction (IIP), Return to Practice (RtP) and International GP Recruitment (IGPR) programmes require an online portfolio and learning material to support them while on their programme. Heath Education England (HEE) believe that FourteenFish is the only supplier who can support the above programmes and meet the specific requirements of the HEE national Primary and Integrated Care Programme within the timeframes available. FourteenFish is the only supplier with the requisite expertise and experience to maintain continuity for the provision of a comprehensive and bespoke portfolio tool and a wide range of on-line learning and development materials in a coherent package to support the International Induction, Return to Practice, and International GP Recruitment programmes. HEE Believes that it is highly unlikely for any other supplier to be up and running from the start of the contract in April 2022 to provide the following skills provided by the current supplier which include: * Delivery of online learning resources and a bespoke online learning and portfolio platform which has been specifically adapted to support International Induction, Return to Practice, and International GP Recruitment programmes. * FourteenFish is a company that specialises in medical appraisals and provides GPs on the International Induction, Return to Practice, and IGPR programmes with a portfolio tool and an extensive library of specialist learning and development material in a package that is coherent, easy-to-use and allows supervisors and Training Programme Directors (TPDs) to monitor the GPs progress. * Comprehensive experience of the development of a bespoke online learning and portfolio platform. * Continued delivery of an accurate and up to date online learning and portfolio platform. The financial envelope for the contract is PS69,332 - PS207,996 (dependant on extensions) exclusive of any VAT.
