Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves the NHS Shared Business Services, which recently awarded a contract titled 'Dementia Advisor and Volunteer Co-ordinator in North West London'. This contract, valued at £57,750, is within the health services industry category and is intended to improve healthcare access and community engagement for older adults in London. The contract commenced on 1st October 2021 and will conclude on 31st March 2023. The procurement method used was a direct, single tender action below threshold, reflecting a streamlined approach to secure services rapidly while the NHS North West London CCG formulates a longer-term commissioning strategy.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on community health and social services, particularly those that specialise in volunteer coordination and support for vulnerable populations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) as well as voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in healthcare and community engagement are well-suited to compete in this space, particularly given the emphasis on improving health outcomes and reducing health inequalities in deprived areas. The project aims to empower local communities by enhancing access to primary care and creating a network of support for older individuals affected by dementia.
