Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Bedfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group, represented by Attain Commissioning Services Limited, is conducting an Invitation to Tender for community-based anticoagulation services. This procurement process targets medical practice and related services within the East of England, specifically Bedfordshire, and is currently in the Tender stage. The deadline for submissions is set for 1st July 2016, with contracts expected to commence on 1st October 2016 and running for a potential duration of 24 months, extendable by another 12 months. The tender is being managed through an open procurement method, allowing broad participation from interested suppliers.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses operating in the healthcare sector, particularly those focused on medical services and related healthcare providers. Companies that have the capacity to manage a sizeable patient caseload and offer ‘one-stop’ anticoagulation services—where sampling, testing, and dosage adjustments can all be handled in a single visit—will be ideally suited to compete. Furthermore, businesses that can provide flexible access options, including out-of-hours care and drop-in appointments, have a competitive advantage in fulfilling the anticipated requirements outlined for this contract.

NHS Bedfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group Community Based Anticoagulation Services

Notice Description

NHS Bedfordshire CCG (BCCG), is planning to run an Invitation to Tender (ITT), procurement process to secure more capacity for community-based anticoagulation services in a number of localities in Bedfordshire. There are already about 25 GP practices that monitor INR levels for their own patients on warfarin. However, BCCG have identified some communities where there is inadequate or no local coverage. It should be noted that * The existing contracts with GP practices, the Bedford Warfarin Service and at acute hospitals that cover the current anticoagulation service will remain in place. * BCCG anticipate building capacity to the level of 1000 extra patient caseload * That any new provider would need to manage at least a caseload of greater than 40 patients. Localities have been identified where this is possible. * That the service provided would be a level 4 and 'one-stop' service, i.e. that the provider must be able to sample, test, and adjust dosage of warfarin all at one visit, and communicate changes to the patient's GP * That access outside of 'office hours' and 'drop-in' appointments are an essential requirement. * Services will be required for the following lots in localities stated (see specification for full details). * The new contracts are anticipated to run for 24 months with a possible extension for a further 12 months (still subject to confirmation). NHS Bedfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group wish to establish a single Provider / multi-Provider contract for the provisions of Community based Anticoagulation Services.
