Notice Information

Notice Title

East Kent CCGs Termination of Pregnancy market engagement

Notice Description

The Commissioner (the four NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups of East Kent: NHS Ashford CCG, NHS Canterbury and Coastal CCG, NHS South Kent Coast CCG, and NHS Thanet CCG) are seeking to engage with organisations who are potentially interested in providing a Termination of Pregnancy (ToP) service. To inform the commissioning process and to help to shape the service model, the Commissioner is engaging with potential providers to assess their capability and interest in delivering the service. We wish to hear from potential providers who believe they are able to deliver the required service as outlined in the Request For Information (RFI) document attached to this advertisement. We are particularly interested in responses to the four key questions in the RFI. Parties wishing to express an interest should send their response by email, to arrive before 5pm on Friday 30 June 2017. Additional information: This RFI does not commit the commissioner to undertake any subsequent procurement process for the service. Participation or non-participation in any early engagement does not entitle, commit, or disbar any provider from participating in any subsequent procurement process for the service. Any subsequent procurement for the service will be advertised separately as appropriate. Any provider wishing to participate in any subsequent procurement for the service will need to respond to any subsequent notice as appropriate.
