The contract is scheduled to commence on 3rd February 2020 and is set to extend until 31st January 2024, with a total estimated value of £1.8 million over the four-year period. A market engagement event is planned for 27th September 2019 to discuss this service, with registration required by 24th September 2019. This ongoing planning stage indicates the commitment of the CCG to engage potential providers actively before a formal procurement process is initiated. This tender represents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the health and social care sectors, particularly those specialising in community health services and phlebotomy. Companies that can provide routine and domiciliary blood testing services are encouraged to participate, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that can offer tailored, accessible care solutions. Engaging in this market testing will allow interested providers to better understand the needs of the local population and position themselves strategically for future contract opportunities if the CCG decides to proceed with a procurement process. ## Notice Enfield faces significant health challenges. Its residents experience more health inequalities than most other parts of England, have a lower life expectancy and experience higher than average deprivation. The CCG is committed to commissioning services, which meet the needs of the local population and strive to provide an integrated approach to care in the community. The Community Phlebotomy service will allow adults to receive routine blood tests, and domiciliary blood testing services in the community daily between the hours of 8am and 18.30pm as a minimum and on weekends if needed. This model will provide local, accessible and integrated services that are aligned with providers within the health and social care economy. NHS Enfield CCG is keen to test the potential market for Community Phlebotomy Service. The CCG wishes to invite potentially interested providers of the services to a market engagment event to be held on Friday 27th September 2019 from 12.00 am - 2.00pm noon in Enfield. The event will be to discuss the Enfield Community Phlebotomy Service and the results of the market questionnaire, which will be issued prior to the event.
