Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS England (East) is initiating a procurement process for the provision of General Medical Services in North West Cambridge, specifically through a Market Engagement Event scheduled for 20th April 2016 from 14:00 to 17:00 at Victoria House, Fulbourn, Cambridge. This event is part of the planning stage for the tender (RTE001P), which is focused on healthcare services within the context of a significant housing development in the area. Interested healthcare service providers must register to attend by 18th April 2016 at 12 noon, and the procurement process will culminate in a contract award with a start date of 1st April 2017, potentially extending for a maximum duration of 10 years if all options are exercised.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses within the healthcare sector, particularly those providing primary care services. Providers of General Practice (GP) services, as well as those with experience in Alternative Provider Medical Services (APMS), would be well-suited to engage in this competitive process. The anticipated growth in population from the new housing development highlights a rising demand for healthcare services, making this a strategic opportunity for businesses aiming to expand their footprint in the Cambridge region and improve service delivery in response to community needs.

Notice Title

RTE001P - Provision of General Medical Services in North West Cambridge (APMS) - Market Engagement Event - NHS England (East)

Notice Description

NHS England - East (NHS England) would like to invite interested healthcare service providers to attend a Market Engagement Event which will inform the market of the intentions to procure a new Alternative Provider Medical Services (APMS) contract for the delivery of general medical services in north west Cambridge. The Market Engagement Event will take place on the 20th April 2016 at 14:00 to 17:00 at the following address: Victoria House, Capital Park, Fulbourn, Cambridge, CB21 5XB. An agenda will be provided to registered attendees nearer the time. Contract Award (indicative): NHS England envisages that a single APMS contract will be let as a result of the procurement exercise with a contract start date of 1st April 2017. NHS England currently envisages offering a contract duration of 5 years (60 months) followed by two optional extension periods; the first optional extension period of 3 years (36 months) may be followed by a second optional extension period of 2 year (24 months). Therefore, should all available extension options be taken up, the maximum contract duration will be 10 years (120 months). The contract opportunity will be open to the entire market and the interest and feedback received at the market event will be used to determine the final procurement process. Registering your interest to attend: Please be advised that you must be registered on the Bravo portal to register your interest in this contract opportunity and to book your place/s for this event. Organisations must complete and return the "Attendee Registration Form" before 18th April 2016 at 12 noon to confirm your place. Due to limited space, a maximum of 2 attendees per organisation are permitted to attend. The form is accessible via the Bravo e-tendering portal - the link and further instructions are provided below. The closing date for applications to attend the event is 18th April 2016 at 12 noon. Please note that after this deadline acceptance of registration forms and attendance cannot be guaranteed. Please be advised that it may be necessary to share the names and contact details of all attendees for the market event to facilitate networking amongst providers. Parties will be able to opt out of the sharing of details by completing the attendee registration form available on the portal at the link above. Please note this is purely a market engagement exercise to provide information, gather feedback and generate and gauge interest in this contract opportunity. This is not a procurement process and can instead be categorised as pre-procurement engagement. NHS England may decide not to initiate a procurement process for this service. Any subsequent procurement will be advertised separately and all organisations wanting to participate in the subsequent procurement will need to respond to the procurement advertisement as and when published. Please direct any questions via the tender portal. Additional information: Background: NHS England is aware of a new housing development currently in construction on the outskirts of Cambridge. The "North West Cambridge" development, commissioned and managed by the University of Cambridge ("the University") will result in the construction of the following: * 1,500 homes for University and College staff * 1,500 private houses for sale * Accommodation for 2,000 postgraduates * Community buildings such as a primary school, community centre, health centre, supermarket and local shops, a hotel and a care home http://www.nwcambridge.co.uk/ NHS England commissioners, working in partnership with NHS Cambridgeshire and Peterborough CCG, have determined that this projected growth in population will require an increase in general medical service provision in the area. As such, NHS England have determined that an open market procurement process will be followed to select the future service provider to ensure value for money and service quality can be suitably evaluated in the selection process. The population of the development at the start of the contract in April 2017 is expected to total around 400 people. This figure is expected to rise quickly and estimates of the expected population of the development by December 2019 are around 4,650. NHS England anticipates the maximum patient list for this contract, given the limitations of the premises in question and the potential for multiple occupancy within the development itself, is around 9,000 patients.
