Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The North West London Clinical Commissioning Group is in the planning stage of a procurement process for the "NWL0062 Dementia Advisor Services" project in Central London (Westminster). This initiative aims to provide post-diagnostic support and advice for individuals diagnosed with dementia, with an emphasis on promoting independence and community access. The engagement with potential providers is set to conclude by 14th April 2022, following a market engagement notice published on 15th March 2022. Currently, there is an existing contract with London Care Ltd, which is valued at approximately £50,000 per annum and will run until the end of March 2022, prompting this call for new tenders to ensure continuity of service beyond that date.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health and social care services, particularly those equipped to support the needs of individuals with dementia. Companies that provide community-based health services, have experience with care management, or offer training in dementia awareness would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The focus on high-quality support and community engagement also creates pathways for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to participate, thereby enhancing their service offerings and contributing to better health outcomes for vulnerable populations.

The post holder provides information on local support services for the person with dementia, providing advice & signposting as & when required. Even though the main focus for the DA is the person with a diagnosis of dementia (rather than Carers), the DA closely liaises with families & friends of the person with dementia as required.
