Notice Description

NHS South East London Clinical Commissioning Group (the Authority) is looking to commission Urgent Treatment Centre (UTC) Services for the borough of Bromley. There are two UTC sites in Bromley: Beckenham Beacon (BB) and Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH). There will be no division of Services into lots, both UTC Services will be commissioned under a single contract. The vision for the UTC is that patients should expect the same standards of care & Service delivery whatever the time of day and at whichever UTC location across the UK in line with the National UTC Principles & Standards. The Services will be GP-led, multi-disciplinary Services that effectively prevent avoidable A&E attendances and ensure that patients are treated in the most appropriate setting, according to their clinical and wellbeing needs. The successful Bidder will be expected to manage a safe and effective transfer from the existing contract to the new contract, ensuring that there is no deterioration in performance during and following transfer. Once transferred, the successful Bidder will be expected to enter into a journey in partnership with the Authority, the local Urgent and Emergency Care (UEC) system to support integration across the system. The contract length will be a maximum of 8 years (5 years with the option to extend by an additional 3 years). It is envisaged that transfer to the successful Bidder, and hence operational commencement of the new contract for Bromley UTCs, will be concluded by 31st March 2023. The expected Service commencement date is 1st April 2023. The Authority wishes to receive responses to the ITT from suitably qualified and experienced Providers with the necessary capacity and capability (or a demonstrable ability to provide the necessary capacity and capability within the requisite timescale, which is notified to Potential Bidders in the ITT) to provide the UTC Services as set out in the ITT, in a safe and effective manner subject to any conditions specified in the Contract or any tender documents issued in connection with the Procurement. In line with national requirements the UTC Services will be available to all patients and residents. This includes those who reside outside of Bromley or any of the south east London boroughs. The contract will include payment for patients resident in, or registered with a GP located in, the six south east London boroughs: Bromley, Bexley, Greenwich, Lambeth, Lewisham, and Southwark. Residents outside of the six south east London boroughs are Out of Area (OOA) patients, and the provider will be required to cross-charge to the relevant Authority. Activity data has been provided to show the split of activity by borough and for OOA patients. Additional information: The Service Specification sets out the Services to be offered by the UTC in further detail. The total affordability ceiling for the initial 5 years of the contract is PS33,500,000.00 (PS6,700,000 per year).

Any expenditure, work or effort undertaken prior to contract award is accordingly a matter solely for the commercial judgment of potential service providers. In such circumstances, and in any event, The Authority or its advisors shall not be liable for any costs or loss of expenses whatsoever incurred by the respondent and company, agent, subsidiary or organisation may have contributed to any response submitted to this notice. In line with the proposed Health and Care Bill it is envisaged that CCGs will be abolished and replaced by Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) should this draft legislation be passed.
