## Summary

The General Medical Council (GMC) conducted a procurement process for a tender titled "Strategy and policy compliance and governance review," valued at £33,300. This request for services falls within the research services industry category and was based in the North West and London regions of the United Kingdom. The procurement was carried out through an open procedure, with the tender period concluding on 20 April 2020, and the contract period spanning from 11 May 2020 to 31 October 2020. The tender has been awarded, with the contract being active since 6 May 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in governance reviews, compliance assessments, and research services. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete, given the project's focus on ensuring compliance with equality laws and governance scrutiny. Businesses with expertise in equality, diversity, and inclusion policies can leverage this opportunity to enhance their service offerings and support the GMC in mitigating reputational and legal risks.

## Notice

We now want to consider the current status of our compliance with duties and standards beyond the Equality Act 2010 and the merits and opportunities for alignment of the equality agenda with wider developments like those mentioned above. Without an assurance of compliance with equality laws and the wider duties, we may be exposed to reputational and legal risk that falls outside of our risk appetite/tolerance, and potential legal action by stakeholders. We also need assurance that each level of the governance structure is scrutinising, challenging and providing effective oversight of ED&I (including the actual delivery of compliance).
