This procurement process, classified under the software package and information systems industry category, is at the Tender stage, with a tender period that ended on 3rd September 2020. The procurement has a total value of £130,000, with a minimum threshold set at £60,000. The contract is anticipated to commence on 4th September 2020 and conclude on 5th September 2020, with deliverables expected in the North West region of the United Kingdom. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in software development and IT services, particularly those focusing on quality management systems. Companies capable of providing comprehensive solutions that ensure compliance with forensic accreditation requirements may find this tender particularly beneficial. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process is designed to be accessible to diverse suppliers in the technology sector. ## Notice GMP aim is to procure quality management system software that will provide the functionality to help manage forensic accreditation compliance.
