About this contract

This is a call for competition.

The Commissioner wishes to receive responses to the Invitation to Tender (ITT) from suitably qualified and experienced Providers with the necessary capacity and capability (or a demonstrable ability to provide the necessary capacity and capability) to provide the range of services required. The Provider must ensure services are appropriate to local needs, access and convenience are important aspects of a patient-centred service but it is also vital that the services are appropriate and responsive to the needs of the local population. The Provider will need to design the services around the needs of patients and their carer's. To deliver a patient-centred service, the Provider will need to engage patients in the design and development of the services. Please see service specification for further detail. The Contract shall be for a term of five (5) years from the Service start date with the possibility of extending the term by up to 5 years beyond the initial contracted term at Commissioners' request. The Commissioner is awaiting confirmation of the contract term from NHS England's Commercial Executive Group (CEG). Once confirmation is received the confirmed duration of the contract will be broadcast on the Bravo system. Estimated value for this is circa £1m per annum. The service will be commissioned via an open procurement process advertised to all providers which is proportionate to the value and complexity of the service and contract. The ITT will be live on the 15th February 2018 on M&L CSU Bravo portal (see below) and it will have a deadline for submissions of 17:00 on the 19th March 2018.
