What is being bought

Published requirement description

Derbyshire Constabulary is currently looking into the available options for our Force Medical Advisor requirements. This Request for Information and tender will be completed in collaboration with Nottinghamshire Police. Under Derbyshire Constabulary this will be under our Occupational and Health and Wellbeing department. For Nottinghamshire this will be within their Occupational Health department. We are looking for 2 x Force Medical Advisor’s (Occupational Health Physician’s) over a 4-day provision per working week. This would be split into 2 days at Derbyshire and 2 days at Nottinghamshire. Derbyshire Constabulary are now assessing available options so that a business case can be created to move the procurement forwards. To inform the business case, we are reaching out with this Request for Information [RFI] to the market to carry out a full review of existing Force Medical Advisor providers. If the business case is approved, a compliant procurement route will be taken at the point of purchase.
