Summary of the contracting process

The NHS South of England Procurement Services is currently planning a Request for Information (RFI) titled "RFI - Request for Information - Proposals to enhance support for the health needs of rough sleepers and/or the street community and those insecurely housed." This initiative aims to address health needs within vulnerable groups, including rough sleepers and individuals with multiple and complex needs. The tender is classified under 'Health services' and is set in the South East region of the United Kingdom. The deadline for RFI responses is 27th November 2017, with contract duration proposals lasting two years, possibly extendable for another two years. The overall budget for the two proposed services stands at approximately £315,000 per annum.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses engaged in health and social care sectors, particularly those offering multidisciplinary team services or specialist nursing services for at-risk populations. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as their insights could help shape future tendering processes. Companies specialising in outreach services, health support for the homeless, and innovative care solutions would be particularly well-suited to contribute valuable expertise to this RFI, thereby fostering potential business growth within this crucial area of public health.

Notice Title

RFI - Request for Information - Proposals to enhance support for the health needs of rough sleepers and/or the street community and those insecurely housed

Notice Description

***Deadline extended to 27/11/17*** NHS Hastings and Rother CCG is seeking views on two interdependent service proposals which are described in the tender documents which are available at https://in-tendhost.co.uk/soepscommissioning/aspx/Home. The aim of these proposals is to enhance support for the health needs of the following target population groups: * Rough Sleepers: * The Street Community * People who are insecurely housed who have multiple and complex needs (MCNs). The proposed total contract value of the two services is: Proposal One - a Multi-Disciplinary Team: circa PS200,000 per annum Proposal Two - a Specialist Nursing Service: circa PS115,000 per annum The proposed duration of the contracts is two years with an option for the authority to extend for a further two years. Please complete your RFI response and return it via the Intend portal by no later than 27th November 2017. Additional information: The focus of these proposals is individuals aged 18 years old and over. Therefore it excludes parents or carers with children as the Children's Act 1989 stipulates the statutory duty to accommodate the household. The proposals do not include parents or carers with children as when a family with children becomes homeless it should first be ascertained whether there is a duty under part VII of the Housing Act 1996 for the council to assist them through a homeless application. Under the Children Act 1989, social services may have a duty to accommodate children where they are without parents, or if the parents cannot get long-term accommodation through a homeless application, for example due to problems with their immigration status or intentional homelessness. The Commissioner seeks your views on these proposals and asks a number of set questions via an RFI response form. We expect you will find some questions more relevant to you and easier to respond to than others. Please try to respond to as many of these as you can as we value your views whether or not you have encountered all of the aspects covered. This is a process designed to help the Commissioner form a view of the best way to commission the services and is not the beginning of a Tender exercise. A further Tender advertisement may be issued at the appropriate time if required. Your feedback at this point will not have a bearing on any future Tender submissions you may wish to submit. You will not be disadvantaged if you choose not to respond to this RFI but it will be helpful to understand your views at this early stage, so you are encouraged to respond as fully as you can. Please complete your response and return it via the Intend portal by no later than 24th November 2017. Thank you for your participation - we appreciate your time and effort in completing this RFI.
