Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The North of England Commissioning Support is seeking providers for Mental Health Services within a prison setting across the Yorkshire & Humber region. This procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with a notable engagement end date set for 22nd January 2021. The request for information (RFI), identified as NHSE642, aims to gather market intelligence on the capacity and appetite of potential providers for delivering these vital services. The formal expressions of interest can be submitted via the InTend electronic tendering portal, with documentation accessible from 12:00 noon on 18th December 2020.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Given the nature of the services required, organisations experienced in mental health provision, especially those with a focus on incarceration settings, would be well-placed to compete. Engaging in this RFI process not only allows businesses to assess the landscape but also positions them favourably for future formal tender opportunities once published.
