Summary of the contracting process

The NHS North East London Clinical Commissioning Group is planning to initiate a tender for community hospice services for adults in several boroughs of North East London, including Barking & Dagenham, Havering, Redbridge, Tower Hamlets, Newham, Waltham Forest, the City of London, and Hackney. The expected contract value is approximately £76.5 million, covering a service duration of five years with a potential two-year extension. Interested organisations are required to submit expressions of interest by midday on 8th July 2022, with the contract commencement projected for 1st April 2023. This tender is framed to ensure that high-quality end-of-life and palliative care is maintained for adult patients in the specified regions.

This procurement process presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in hospice care services, particularly those with experience in providing non-NHS hospice solutions. Companies that can demonstrate a robust track record in delivering comprehensive end-of-life care, including inpatient facilities and community support services, will be well-positioned to compete. The CCG is seeking organisations that have suitable physical locations in the community and the necessary clinical experience to deliver the required service standards. This is an excellent opportunity for skilled providers to engage with a potentially rewarding contract aimed at enhancing palliative care in North East London.

    "description": "North East London CCG believes that there is not a competitive market for Hospice service for Adults. Any organisation responding to this notice must explain why they disagree with the CCG position that a competitive market for Hospices in East London does not exist, and, if wishing to be considered for a potential competitied tender, explain in detail the track record of their organisation in delivering Hospice care so that the CCG can determine that the expression of interest is from a capable and experienced Hospice provider. This PIN is being published on Friday 10th June 2022 and expressions of interest will need to be submitted to the CCG by midday on Friday 8th July 2022 at the latest. Contract commencement is expected for 1st April 2023, the contract will be for the duration of 5 years with an option to extend it for 24 months. A Contract will be awarded separately to St Francis Hospice and to St Joseph's Hospice. During 2022, it is anticipated that NEL CCG will be abolished by the introduction of the Health and Care Bill and replaced by an Integrated Care Board (ICB). Any future contract and/or procurement opportunity may therefore be in the name of the NEL ICB.",
