Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Bolton Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), represented by NHS Shared Business Services Ltd (NHS SBS), is seeking providers' input through a Request for Information (RFI) for the Provision of Children and Young Person's Mental Health Service. This initiative targets the registered child population in Bolton, from ages 0 to 18, or up to 25 years for those with Special Educational Needs or Disabilities (SEND). The RFI is currently active and will remain open until 26 April 2017. It aims to inform the service model and procurement approach, estimating an annual affordability threshold of approximately £2,500,000, with a contract envisioned for three years, extending up to two additional years. The service will be focused on early intervention through evidence-based practices and is classified under health and social work services, primarily located in the North West region of England.

This procurement opportunity presents a significant avenue for businesses specialising in mental health services, particularly those with experience in delivering targeted interventions for children and young people. Companies well-versed in evidence-based practices and familiar with integrated health and social care systems would be particularly suited to participate. The RFI phase provides a unique opportunity to influence the final service specifications and enhance competition that could lead to improved quality and value for money for service users in Bolton. Interested providers are encouraged to respond comprehensively to all questions in the RFI to showcase their capabilities and potential contributions to this vital service area.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Request for Information (RFI) for the Provision of Children and Young Person's Mental Health Service on behalf of NHS Bolton Clinical Commissioning Group

Notice Description

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to support NHS Bolton Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) to further develop the service model and to form a view of the best way to procure the service described below. This is not an Invitation to Tender (ITT). NHS SBS acting on behalf of NHS Bolton CCG are seeking information from Providers which will be used to help determine the commissioning approach for the Provision of Children and Young Person's Mental Health Service for the registered child population of the Bolton area aged 0 to 18 years or up to 25 years with a Special Educational Need or Disability (SEND). The CCG are seeking information relating to commissioning a high quality, evidenced based targeted service that will deliver a targeted early intervention service to meet the emotional and mental health needs of children and young people who have mild, moderate and severe needs in Bolton. This is based on the delivery of the Thrive Conceptual Framework and this model of liaison and consultation will be used to organise the provision of services to address the needs of children and young people with mental health problems, their families, carers and professionals providing access the most effective interventions. The CCG hope that the service will be child and family focused, and delivered within the context of a whole systems approach to ensure early identification, integrating working across the health and social care economy. The service will need to ensure that the least intensive intervention that is appropriate is typically provided first, with the ability to step up and step down between provision in order to best meet the changing needs and in response to interventions for children and young people. The model must ensure that intensive interventions are reserved for those children and young people at the highest level of need and who do not benefit from first-line interventions. For the purpose of this RFI, the Affordability Threshold is estimated to be circa PS2,500,000 per annum and it is envisaged that the Contract will be for a duration of 3 years with the option to extend for a further 2 years. Your RFI response will help the CCG to further refine the service specification as well as inform the potential benefits of competition to improve services with regards to meeting the needs of service users, improving quality, value for money and better integration without destabilising service provision. You are therefore encouraged to respond to all questions as fully as you can to evidence the relative benefits of a potential competitive process. Following receipt of the RFI documentation and the finalisation of the CCG commissioning approach, it is the CCG expectation that the procurement documentation will be issued within the next 6 months. This RFI has also been advertised in OJEU. To register on EU Supply please log on to the following website:https://nhssbs.eu-supply.com reference 26776.
