Notice Title

Online Educational Cancer Resource primarily for Primary Care

Notice Description

Health Education England (HEE - the Commissioner) are putting out this notice as a PIN (Prior Information Notice) with a view to completing a Direct Award. Please note the contracting authority intends to direct award the contract to the Christie NHS Foundation Trust. The case for direct award can be found on the tender portal. GatewayC was initially created to support the Cancer Alliances and the CCGs in delivering the NHS Long Term Plan for cancer having established nationally that education is the key to improving early diagnosis in primary care. Over the course of the pandemic and with the changes in the NHS structure, GatewayC has grown and adapted to meet the needs of all its stakeholders whether they are primary care professionals, Cancer Alliances, NHSE policy makers, PCNs, HEE or universities. It is a highly reactive entity which is linked into national policy, can respond quickly to informational and educational needs, creates a forum for interpretation and debate, and vitally provides support and training to the workforce of the future. The Christie NHS Foundation Trust is the only organisation capable of providing the additional functionality and expertise to GatewayC to meet specific requirements of the Cancer and Diagnostics Programme. The Christie NHS Foundation Trust as the developer and host of the GatewayC portal has the requisite expertise and experience to assist HEE in fulfilling the solution driven functionality essential to allow further content on cancer to support earlier diagnosis of cancer and reduce the proportion of cancers diagnosed following emergency presentation. Other suppliers who work in this area would need to redo and charge for work already completed in order to provide the same level of useability and functionality. The financial envelope for the contract is PS238,167.00 For the Specification, Contract and the Case for Direct Award please access the portal at: https://health-family-contract-search.secure.force.com/?SearchType=Projects Please access the portal for all documents.

The closing date of this PIN is midday on the 29th July 2022
