Likely requirements
Our reading of the notice. Always check the tender documents.
This contract requires qualified clinical staff (midwives and specialist community public health nurses), so sole traders without relevant medical qualifications and registrations will be excluded; additionally, the estimated value of £3.04 million and complexity of overseas healthcare delivery will require significant organisational infrastructure and relevant track record.
