Notice Title
Social Impact Framework - Reopening 1
Notice Description
The East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub has established a multi-lot Social Impact Framework to support the commissioning of services that address health inequalities and the wider determinants of health. This notice relates to the first reopening of the open framework under the Procurement Act 2023. The reopening allows new suppliers to apply to join the framework and existing suppliers to apply for additional Lots where relevant. The framework provides a compliant and structured route for NHS organisations, Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), local authorities, and other public sector bodies to procure community-based services. It is designed to strengthen collaboration with VCSEs, SMEs, and specialist providers, with the aim of improving early access to support and reducing pressure on acute services. The framework focuses on three core themes: Voice & Influence: Enabling people and communities to shape services, exercise choice, and be active participants in decision-making. Community-Led Services for Social Impact: Supporting services led by local organisations and communities, with a focus on addressing locally identified needs. Prevention & Cessation: Commissioning services that focus on prevention, early intervention, and supporting people to make positive changes, reducing demand for crisis or acute care. Services may include, but are not limited to, support relating to mental health, housing, employment, financial inclusion, domestic abuse, and wider prevention services.

Planning Information
The East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub (EoECPH) has established the Social Impact Framework, which provides a clear and compliant route to market for public sector organisations, including NHS organisations, Integrated Care Boards, local authorities and other public bodies, to commission services that address health inequalities and the wider determinants of health. The framework is now approaching its first reopening, which will provide an opportunity for additional organisations to apply to join the framework. This pre-market engagement period is intended to help organisations understand the framework and prepare for the upcoming reopening. As the framework has already been established, this engagement is not intended to change the scope or structure of the procurement. Instead, this engagement will help us to: • Provide early information about the framework reopening and application process • Support organisations that may wish to apply to the framework • Offer an opportunity for suppliers to raise clarification questions ahead of the tender • Ensure suppliers have access to consistent information before the reopening This engagement is open to organisations of all sizes that deliver services aligned with the framework lots, including VCSE organisations, SMEs and larger providers. This is not a formal tender or contract opportunity. Participation in this engagement is voluntary and will not provide any organisation with a competitive advantage in the procurement process. Preliminary Market Engagement Process Suppliers can submit clarification questions and engage with the pre-market engagement through the Atamis supplier portal: https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome To access the engagement materials: • Suppliers should register on the portal if they are not already registered. • Search for the opportunity reference C430067 – Pre-Market Engagement – Social Impact Framework Reopening 1. • Register interest in the opportunity to access the engagement materials. Suppliers may submit clarification questions during this period. A consolidated set of responses will be published ahead of the framework reopening to ensure all suppliers have access to the same information. Suppliers can contact the Atamis helpdesk at support-health@atamis.co.uk or by calling 02922 809277 for technical assistance when accessing the portal. This pre-market engagement will remain open until 17:00 on 22 April 2026. Supplier Information Sessions We will be hosting two virtual supplier information sessions to provide an overview of the Social Impact Framework and explain the upcoming reopening process. Each session will cover the same agenda, including: • An introduction to the purpose of the framework • An overview of the framework structure and service lots • An explanation of how the tender process will work • Guidance on preparing an application Session 1: 11 March 2026 – 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/38825993990150?p=K5Xkgr9vKJHg2B9K1N Session 2: 16 April 2026 – 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/31017212658011?p=kCcwsCXlc5BsbjurPm To ensure transparency and equal access to information, recordings of the sessions will be published on the Hub’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@EOECPH-NHS Organisations are welcome to attend either session. Both sessions will cover the same content.

"description": "The East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub (EoECPH) has established the Social Impact Framework, which provides a clear and compliant route to market for public sector organisations, including NHS organisations, Integrated Care Boards, local authorities and other public bodies, to commission services that address health inequalities and the wider determinants of health. The framework is now approaching its first reopening, which will provide an opportunity for additional organisations to apply to join the framework. This pre-market engagement period is intended to help organisations understand the framework and prepare for the upcoming reopening. As the framework has already been established, this engagement is not intended to change the scope or structure of the procurement. Instead, this engagement will help us to: * Provide early information about the framework reopening and application process * Support organisations that may wish to apply to the framework * Offer an opportunity for suppliers to raise clarification questions ahead of the tender * Ensure suppliers have access to consistent information before the reopening This engagement is open to organisations of all sizes that deliver services aligned with the framework lots, including VCSE organisations, SMEs and larger providers. This is not a formal tender or contract opportunity. Participation in this engagement is voluntary and will not provide any organisation with a competitive advantage in the procurement process. Preliminary Market Engagement Process Suppliers can submit clarification questions and engage with the pre-market engagement through the Atamis supplier portal: https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome To access the engagement materials: * Suppliers should register on the portal if they are not already registered. * Search for the opportunity reference C430067 - Pre-Market Engagement - Social Impact Framework Reopening 1. * Register interest in the opportunity to access the engagement materials. Suppliers may submit clarification questions during this period. A consolidated set of responses will be published ahead of the framework reopening to ensure all suppliers have access to the same information. Suppliers can contact the Atamis helpdesk at support-health@atamis.co.uk or by calling 02922 809277 for technical assistance when accessing the portal. This pre-market engagement will remain open until 17:00 on 22 April 2026. Supplier Information Sessions We will be hosting two virtual supplier information sessions to provide an overview of the Social Impact Framework and explain the upcoming reopening process. Each session will cover the same agenda, including: * An introduction to the purpose of the framework * An overview of the framework structure and service lots * An explanation of how the tender process will work * Guidance on preparing an application Session 1: 11 March 2026 - 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/38825993990150?p=K5Xkgr9vKJHg2B9K1N Session 2: 16 April 2026 - 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/31017212658011?p=kCcwsCXlc5BsbjurPm To ensure transparency and equal access to information, recordings of the sessions will be published on the Hub's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@EOECPH-NHS Organisations are welcome to attend either session. Both sessions will cover the same content.",

"description": "The East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub has established a multi-lot Social Impact Framework to support the commissioning of services that address health inequalities and the wider determinants of health. This notice relates to the first reopening of the open framework under the Procurement Act 2023. The reopening allows new suppliers to apply to join the framework and existing suppliers to apply for additional Lots where relevant. The framework provides a compliant and structured route for NHS organisations, Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), local authorities, and other public sector bodies to procure community-based services. It is designed to strengthen collaboration with VCSEs, SMEs, and specialist providers, with the aim of improving early access to support and reducing pressure on acute services. The framework focuses on three core themes: Voice & Influence: Enabling people and communities to shape services, exercise choice, and be active participants in decision-making. Community-Led Services for Social Impact: Supporting services led by local organisations and communities, with a focus on addressing locally identified needs. Prevention & Cessation: Commissioning services that focus on prevention, early intervention, and supporting people to make positive changes, reducing demand for crisis or acute care. Services may include, but are not limited to, support relating to mental health, housing, employment, financial inclusion, domestic abuse, and wider prevention services.",
