This selective procurement process with negotiation has a tender deadline of 20th November 2023. The contract, valued at GBP 1.8 billion, will commence on 1st April 2025 and last for an initial 7-year term, extendable up to 2 years. The procurement aims to re-procure innovative community services and engage stakeholders for continuous improvement. This procurement presents a lucrative opportunity for service providers to deliver integrated community health services, especially for businesses operating in the health and care sector. Companies with expertise in patient-centric care, stakeholder engagement, and service innovation would be well-suited to compete for this contract. The phased approach by the Commissioners allows for transformational change, with a key focus on meeting patients' needs and ensuring service excellence throughout the contract period. ## Notice NHS Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care Board (BSW ICB), Somerset Integrated Care Board (SICB), Bath and North East Somerset (BaNES) Council, Swindon Borough Council and Wiltshire Council (the Local Authorities) are responsible for commissioning Health and Care including Public Health Services within their localities. References below to the "Commissioners" are to BSW ICB, SICB and the Local Authorities collectively. This procurement is driven by the need to re-procure Community Services throughout all life stages. The procurement seeks to appoint a sole provider or consortium of providers with a nominated lead provider to provide a service which is innovative, meets patients' expectations and fits the needs of the BSW population now and throughout the contract period. The scope and value of the contract with the Provider will be based on the initial financial envelope. As a minimum, the Provider will be responsible for the delivery of the core services that are defined within the Memorandum of Information within a budget of c. PS138m (incl.VAT) per annum. There is a potential that the scope and value may change through the procurement process and during the contract term. The Commissioners are seeking services to be delivered innovatively in a way that meets the needs of the population now and throughout the contract period. As such, the Commissioners will expect the Provider to continuously engage with stakeholders and, in agreement with Commissioners, evolve the services ensuring they are fit for purpose and meets patients needs. The services needs to work in an integrated manner offering seamless community-based care, particularly from a patient's viewpoint. Due to the complexity of the re-commissioning, and the complex nature of the community services being commissioned, the Commissioners are using a phased approach to secure the transformational change required. To enable this change and further integration of services, the Commissioners reserve the right to include the services defined as 'reserved services' within the Memorandum of Information within any contract without recourse to a further notice or procurement process. The combined total value of these reserve services is estimated to be c. PS17m (incl. VAT) per annum. Any further investment in addition to the c. PS138m (incl.VAT) per annum available for core services and the c.PS17m (incl.VAT) per annum available for reserve services will be determined during the procurement process or the contract term alongside opportunities to improve value for money. As such, Commissioners have taken a view that over the life of the contract further investment and inflationary increase may be required which has been included in the total estimated value of the contract. Contracts will be for an initial term of 7 yrs with a possible extension of any period up to a further 2 yrs at the discretion of the Commissioner.
