Notice Description

Due to the upcoming expiry of the current contract, NHS England (South) is seeking to engage with providers who have the capability and capacity to deliver Satellite Renal Services for patients across the county of Somerset. This process is being carried out by NHS South, Central & West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner. The full service scope is currently being defined but as a minimum will include provision of renal dialysis at three satellite locations in the South West. The contract value is approximated to be around PS3.5 million per annum (dependant on final service scope) and will be contracted using the NHS Standard Contract. It is anticipated that the contract term will be 3 years minimum from 1/4/19 with an extension option at Commissioner discretion for any number of periods to a maximum of 7 years total. If the Commissioner chooses to proceed to procurement it is envisaged that the tender documentation for the procurement of these services will be available from April 2018. An engagement event will be held on 15/12/2017, 10.15 to 16.40 with the aim of gathering information from stakeholders to use when shaping the procurement documentation. At the event a presentation will provide information regarding the proposed upcoming procurement and upon request attendees will be allocated specific individual Question and Answer time slots following this.

Please note the attendance will be limited to 2 attendees per organisation, and the Commissioner reserves the right to reduce this number should venue capacity necessitate. An expression of interest to attend this Market Engagement Event is no indication of a commitment to participate in any future tender process nor does it infer any special status on those Providers who do attend. An expression of interest in this event will not automatically entitle involvement in any future procurement exercise.
