Notice Title
Board Impact and Improvement Programme
Notice Description
Currently, Boards across England are at varying stages in their maturity as evidenced by the NHS IMPACT self-assessment, and other indicators, leading to variation in performance that we believe could be mitigated with the right interventions. The Board Impact and Improvement Programme is a new initiative that takes a whole Board, national approach to capability building in the service of continuous improvement and efficiency. This programme will involve the design and development of an improvement programme for all NHSE Boards which will be tested in year one with full role out nationally in years 2-3. The programme further includes how Boards within systems work together to develop their improvement approach, whether as part of a provider collaborative, ICB footprint, sub-region or region.

Planning Information
Pre-engagement to be held on Friday 14th March 2025, 11:00am to 12noon via Teams. Interested parties must register their interest in the event, including the names and contact details of each attendee. To note, attendance is limited to a maximum of two people per provider. Please register via email only by contacting catherine.land@nhs.net The deadline for participation requests in the market engagement event is Friday 14th March at 10am. At this point in the process, potentially interested parties are asked to not approach NHSE staff to discuss this potential opportunity. If there are specific clarifications required on the opportunity, please address these through the contact details in this notice, or via the details provided at the event. Following this market engagement process: • NHSE may decide to embark on a process to procure provider or: • NHSE may decide not to commence such a procurement process. NHSE asks the market to appreciate that the main reasons for this engagement are to understand market interest, view of the opportunity and potential commercial arrangements that would be acceptable in the market, given the scale and the ambitions of the project . Should we pursue a process to procure a partner, it will be issuing contractual terms against which bidders will be assessed. Therefore, providing a response will assist us in developing such terms. NHSE also wish to confirm that anything discussed during the market engagement process will not have a bearing on the evaluation of parties during any subsequent process or give any indication of acceptance or commitment to a particular approach. NHSE shall have no liability for any costs howsoever incurred by those participating in this market engagement process.
