## Summary

NHS England has awarded a contract titled "GIM (General Internal Medicine Contract)" to the Royal College of Physicians for the coordination, delivery, and evaluation of a General Internal Medicine Teaching programme. Located in London, NHS England operates under the classification of a public authority within the central government and conducted this procurement using a direct method, classified under the 'lightTouch' special regime, which was placed below the competition threshold. The process was devoid of competitive bidding, concluding in the Award stage, with the contract signed on 31st March 2026. The contract is active from 1st April 2026 until 31st March 2029, with a total contract value of £92,700, excluding VAT.

This procurement presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in education and training services within the healthcare industry, particularly those capable of catering to higher specialty trainees. Although the contract was awarded directly, the opportunity aligns with businesses that have a strategic interest in partnership models with public health entities. Companies looking to expand in healthcare education may consider maintaining relationships and demonstrating competency in similar contracts to position themselves for future opportunities with NHS England or similar public institutions.
