This initiative falls under the research and development services category and is based in London, United Kingdom. The tender was published on 4th October 2018, with responses required to be submitted by the same day. The project aims to gather insights from stakeholders, including nurses, midwives, and the public, to better understand their expectations concerning the regulation of care, which could inform future practices. This opportunity offers significant potential for businesses specialising in strategic research, particularly those with a strong track record in market research and consultancy services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) may find themselves well-positioned to compete for this contract, as the Nursing and Midwifery Council seeks innovative approaches to collect and analyse stakeholder expectations. Engaging in this tender could help such businesses expand their portfolio, enhance their visibility in the healthcare sector, and foster valuable connections within the industry. ## Notice We want to find out what nurses, midwives, services users, the public and our employees expect from regulation of nursing and midwifery, from us in particular, and why. We expect this will help us to better understand how we're viewed, as well as collating the outstanding recommendations, and finding gaps in our understanding of our audiences and their expectations of us. We're looking for an organisation with a strong track record of providing strategic research to help us find out more about what our audiences expect from us and why.
