Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Shared Business Services is undertaking the procurement of Cancer Care Services in Brent, focusing on providing accessible support for cancer-affected individuals within the community. This tender, classified under health services, is currently at the award stage. The contract was awarded on 31st March 2021, with a total value of £37,500, and its effective period extends from 28th April 2021 to 30th September 2021. The service aims to assist residents of Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds through culturally-sensitive care and outreach support, crucial for addressing diverse health needs in Brent, London.

This tender presents growth opportunities for businesses involved in health and social care, particularly those offering services tailored to the BAME community or that have experience with non-clinical cancer support. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, as there is a demand for culturally inclusive services that raise awareness of health issues and provide necessary support to vulnerable populations. Businesses that can demonstrate a clear understanding of the community's needs and have the capability to deliver effective outreach and educational programmes will be at a competitive advantage.
