Description

The Department of Health and Social Care is looking to undertake a retendering process to award a contract for the the NIHR Research Delivery Network co-ordinating centre. The initial contract duration will be 5 years, starting on 1/4/2024 with the option to extend for up to a further 4 years. A Prior Invitation Notice (PIN) for early market engagement was published on 14th April 2022 via Find Tender Service (FTS): https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/010082-2022?origin=SearchResults&a... The DHSC is holding a virtual market engagement event on 14th June, 2022. The intention of this market engagement event is to provide the potential bidders with the opportunity to understand and provide feedback on the upcoming DHSC procurement process and the key requirements of the project. The feedback of this market consultation may be used in the planning and conduct of the procurement procedure. For avoidance of doubt this is not a call for competition and this market engagement process does not form part of the formal procurement process. A market consultation questionnaire, and project description are attached to this notice.
