Description

Health Education England are putting out this notice as a PIN (Prior Information Notice) with a view to completing a Direct Award to the British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin

The case for direct award can be found on the tender portal.
HEE is seeking a provider to improved visibility and understanding of the
HEE national Cancer and Diagnostics programme. HEE believes that it is highly unlikely for any other supplier to be able to provide the following skills/tools provided by the British Association of Physicians of Indian Origin as a current supplier for the following reasons:

1. BAPIO is a major non-profit organisation with the main purpose of supporting international graduates. The organisation carries a level of reputation and access to expertise that is not replicable across other suppliers.
2. BAPIO has access to expertise in providing induction and training within India.
3. BAPIO is experienced in managing the graduate applications process and conducting regular assessments for these candidates.

The financial envelope for this PIN is £640,000

The closing date of this PIN is midday on 22/02/2023
