## Summary

The General Medical Council (GMC) is currently conducting a tender titled "Building an evidence base for the reform of legislation governing medical regulation." This procurement falls under the category of general management consultancy services and is taking place primarily in the North West and London regions of the United Kingdom. The procurement method is open, following an open procedure below the threshold, with the tender period set to conclude on 3rd August 2018. The contract is projected to begin on 13th August 2018 and will extend until 31st December 2018.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses involved in management consultancy services, particularly those capable of contributing to healthcare legislation reform. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the GMC is open to innovations that can enhance their evidence base and support discussions with stakeholders within the NHS and healthcare sectors. Companies with a strong background in healthcare consultancy, legal reform, and stakeholder engagement would be particularly well-placed to compete for this contract.

## Notice

The purpose of this work is to build an evidence base to support our arguments for the reform of legislation governing medical regulation. It will be used by the GMC to support engagement with NHS England, the Department of Health and Social Care, and stakeholders across the UK, as we press for professional regulation to be included in the forthcoming ten year plan for the NHS, and in an anticipated new Health Bill.
