Description
The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), working with NHS England (NHSE), and the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR), have initiated a project to update the national guidance on Intellectual Property (IP) for NHS organisations, which has not been revised in 23 years.
To date, the project team has developed a wireframe of the new guidance, outlining its structure and key content areas. Additionally, extensive stakeholder feedback has been gathered to inform the final version.
Request for Professional Services
We now require Legal Professional Services support to transform the wireframe into comprehensive, actionable guidance with exemplar IP agreements, and exemplar IP policy statements. The key deliverables include:
Development of Full IP Guidance for NHS Organisations
Reviewing the draft IP guidance already created
Reviewing existing case studies, IP policy examples, and exemplar agreements from across the NHS
Turning the draft IP guidance into a complete guidance document by: -
Developing best practice examples to illustrate key principles.
Creating IP exemplar agreements (e.g., NDAs, opt-out agreements, MOUs, collaboration agreements, joint IP agreements).
Designing diagrams and visual tools to showcase innovation pathways incorporating IP.
Providing expert legal review and confirmation of alignment with any relevant legislation
