Summary of the contracting process

NHS England South West is currently managing a procurement process for the "2017 - 2019 Contract Awards for Prescribed Specialised Services" with a total value of approximately £1.25 billion. The procurement is in the tender stage, with the deadline for expressions of interest having closed on 4th November 2016. This process is aimed at enhancing service quality and integrating care around patients, primarily within the health and social work services sector, located in the South West of the United Kingdom. The contracts will commence on 1st April 2017 and conclude on 31st March 2019, and are set to be awarded to incumbent providers unless alternative economic operators express interest.

This contracting opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specializing in health and community services. Companies experienced in providing specialised rehabilitation, integrated care solutions, or who can contribute innovative approaches to service delivery are particularly well-suited to compete. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate in this procurement, especially as there may be future opportunities arising from the Strategic Service Review Programme during the contract period.

Notice Title

NHS England South West: 2017 - 2019 Contract Awards for Prescribed Specialised Services

Notice Description

In 2016/17 NHS England set out their approach to ensure that prescribed specialised services are commissioned from the most capable providers through a rolling Strategic Service Review Programme with priorities published in commissioning intentions. From service reviews and from locally led change through sustainability and transformation plans, we expect there to be more networks of specialist providers and re-shaping supply models and contracting approaches to integrate care around patients. Service reviews will also provide an opportunity for providers to propose sustainable solutions in line with clinically developed requirements. Service review implementation will also enable new payment approaches in order to incentivise improvement in care quality and patient experience. Where the relationship between quality, value and patient volumes is strong we expect there to be consolidation of some services as a consequence of undertaking reviews. NHS England will continue to undertake reviews using a structured programme methodology with provider selection carried out in an open and transparent way. There are already a number of services out for procurement at this time. NHS England South West Commissioning hub is signalling their intent to: * award whole contracts for 2017-2019 using the NHS Standard Contract to the incumbent providers without further publication, unless; expressions of interest are received from alternative economic operators * explore the opportunities for longer than 2 year contracts where this affords opportunities for significant improvements in service quality and efficiency facilitated by using the NHS Standard Contract option to extend the term for up to two years The closing date for expressions of interest is 5pm on Friday 4th November 2016. Economic operators should express interest in writing to https://in-tendhost.co.uk/scwcsu/aspx/ProjectManage/279 . During this contract period, where services may be subject to further procurement as a result of the rolling Strategic Service Review Programme, procurements will be published appropriately. If your organisation would like to become involved with the procurement you should now register on the In-Tend website https://in-tendhost.co.uk/scwcsu/aspx/Home to access the Opportunity Listing and all further details.
