Notice Title

Mental Health Pathfinder Alliance - Tier 2 Services

Notice Description

This notice is to inform the market of the direct award of a 2 year contract with potential extension option of up to one further year (2+1) to the nine listed providers, for the provision of a Pathfinder Tier 2 Mental Health Service for NHS West Sussex Clinical Commissioning Group ('the CCG') from 1st April 2022.

Lot Information

Lot 1

In order to maintain the value of the current alliance, which is critical for the delivery of services and has been established since 2016, a direct award is being made to ensure continuity of provision and the ability of the CCG to quickly respond to the time limited requirements of the Long Term Plan alongside PCNs. These voluntary sector services provide tier 2 mental health support in the community across West Sussex, including employment support, individual and group interventions and telephone support. This direct award of contracts is made in the context of identified patient need and pressures on the local mental health system, and as such supporting the requirement to align to the outcomes of the Long Term Plan. This alignment to the Long Term Plan (LTP) will enable delivery of targets outlined and associated expectations to invest in community services, and to reduce the number of people requiring emergency or urgent care due to effective supportive alternatives in the community.
