Notice Title

University of Bristol Dental School Clinical Governance

Notice Description

The University's new Dental School is aiming to open in 2022. The Bristol Dental School is currently integrated and collocated with the Bristol Dental Hospital, which is run by the Universities Hospitals Bristol & Weston NHS Foundation Trust. As such, the IT systems currently used by the Dental School to facilitate clinical practice are those used by, and provided by, the NHS Trust. The intention of the New Dental School project is to separate the University's Dental School both physically and operationally from the Dental Hospital and the NHS Trust, creating a separate and independent Dental School and clinical facility based at a new dedicated location within Bristol. In conjunction with this move, the Dental School's operating model will be redefined to deliver enhancements to the quality of clinical education along with significant improvements to student, staff and patient experience. By separating from the NHS Trust, and the Dental Hospital, the New Dental School will need to procure a number of new IT systems to support the clinical practice elements of the school. This procurement ( itt_861 and itt_862) was specifically for the provision of a Clinical Incident Management System software and Clinical Compliance System software, collectively known as Dental School Clinical Governance.

Lot Information

Lot Lot 1: Clinical Incident Management System (CIMS)

To support the operation of the Dental School it is a requirement to have a Clinical Incident Management System, available to any member of staff or student based in the Dental School building (approximately 700 students and staff). The implementation of an appropriate incident management system is a pre-requisite for Care Quality Commission (CQC) registration, that has to be in place before the new dental school can open. The system is currently managed by the NHS Trust, where the Dental School's main involvement is receiving actions and tasks relating to incidents and reporting back to the Trust with updates; this is achieved using prescribed document templates and emails. The new system must ensure that the Dental School can manage all incidents that impact patient safety in a manner that is compliant with CQC (legislative) regulations. This will include: * Capturing details of patient-safety incidents * Automated workflows to ensure correct and timely response to incidents * Tracking progress of incidents and investigations * Alerts and emails to users (tasks, actions, notifications) * Reporting and monitoring for compliance & quality * A record of all communications sent to the patient or their representative

Options: 2 years initial term plus 2 further option years (2+2)

Renewal: To be re-tendered before the end of the contract duration

Lot Lot 2: Clinical Compliance System (CCS)

No contract Awarded. The University is undertaking a reassessment of our approach and is intending to relaunch the CCS (lot 2) procurement in the new year with revised requirements as a new tender.

Options: Initial contract duration will be 2 years with 2 further option years (2+1+1)

Renewal: Contract will be re-tendered prior to end of duration
