Notice Title

BNSSG ICB Digital Shared Care Record System

Notice Description

Bristol North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Integrated Care Board (BNSSG ICB) is planning to go out to formal procurement for a Shared Care Record in or around March 2023. In support of this, BNSSG ICB is planning to undertake market engagement activities. BNSSG ICB is finalising what will be required in any new contract, including interoperability standards to meet the emerging standards from the NHS England Chief Technology Officer to enable information to be shared between Electronic Patient Records (EPRS) and Shared Care Records in BNSSG, the South West and in England and Wales (where necessary) using national NHS England interoperability services. BNSSG ICB wishes to engage the market in these, and other, discussions. The Service is a digital shared care record system for sharing health and care information to support direct care for individuals that live in BNSSG or when they receive specialist services that are not available in their own locality. It allows instant, secure access for qualified health and social care professionals (providing services to the NHS), to health and social care information, including extracts of GP, hospital, mental health, community and social care records. It is anticipated that the contract formally advertised in or around March 2023 will be for a value of PS500k-750K per year and an anticipated contract term of 5+2+2, although this remains subject to finalisation. At the same time, BNSSG ICB on behalf of the Connecting Care Partnership has a current contract with Orion Health for the provision of a Shared Care Record that is due to expire 26th November 2022. As part of its overall strategic approach to formally competitively re-commissioning the services, BNSSG ICB intends to continue the current contract with Orion Health for 2 years by direct award at a value of PS550k per year (PS1.1m total value). This will allow BNSSG ICB the time to run a full and thorough procurement process for the above requirements leading to the award of new contract(s) to be implemented from November 2024. This is considered the minimum sufficient timeframe for any new solution to be specified, procured and fully implemented in line with NHS England and local requirements. This Notice is being managed by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of BNSSG ICB. To express interest in market engagement for the March 2023 procurement opportunity please join the project within the Atamis e-procurement system no later than midday on 16 December 2022.
