The Australian Medical Council (AMC) invites suitably qualified service providers to respond to a Request for Tender (RFT) to support the AMC in delivering its Process and Systems Improvement (PSI) Project.
The PSI Project aims to building long-term capability systems and processes for long-term operational excellence of AMC’s Accreditation and Assessment functions by mapping current state processes, co-designing future-state workflows, and preparing for future IT system integration. This transformation initiative is a key strategic priority to enhance service quality, data utilisation, stakeholder experience, and organisational agility.
Through this RFT, the AMC seeks to engage a vendor to deliver services aligned with the objectives of Stage 1 (Process Mapping) and Stage 2 (Process Redesign) of the project.
Australian Operational Presence Requirement
Tenderers must demonstrate a strong operational presence in Australia, including but not limited to a registered Australian business entity and the capacity to deliver services locally. Organisations without a demonstrable Australian base may be deemed ineligible to participate in this procurement process.
Note: This RFT covers a staged contract for Stage 1 and Stage 2 only. AMC reserves the right to conduct a separate procurement process for Stage 3 or to negotiate with the successful vendor.
