## Summary

The South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust is currently undertaking a tender for a review of care in the Early Intervention in Psychosis Services, an initiative aimed at adapting to the evolving NHS landscape over the last three decades. This procurement falls under the industry category of research and development services and related consultancy services, with a total value of £40,000. The tender period concludes on 8 November 2021, and the anticipated contract duration begins on 22 November 2021, extending until 31 March 2022. The project is set to be conducted in London, particularly within the borough-based Alliances framework of the Integrated Care Systems, enhancing collaboration across health, social care, and the voluntary sector.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on research and development, particularly those with expertise in mental health services, consultancy, and community engagement. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to participate, as the procurement aims to foster collaboration and innovative approaches to psychosis care. Businesses that can offer evidenced-based models and demonstrate a commitment to co-production with service users and carers will be well-suited to submit proposals for this review.

## Notice

This review is in response to the changed national landscape of the NHS since the development of Early Intervention Services in Lambeth 30 years ago. The recent and ongoing development of borough based Alliances within Integrated Care Systems emphasises integration and the working across traditional boundaries of health, social care and the voluntary sector and across primary and secondary care. South London and Maudsley plans a community transformation of core services, within this national framework, with an emphasis on effective population health management and continuity of care. How the front end of psychosis services will best operate in this new context needs to be determined. The following guiding principles will be emphasised throughout the review process: * Drawing on innovative and evidenced based models providing early intervention for those with psychosis * Based on international best practice and national/local guidance * Promoting population health management with a focus on prevention (secondary and tertiary) * Promoting a collaborative/co-production approach giving service users and carers a voice in service design, delivery and evaluation of and participation in research * Taking into consideration the perspectives of borough based Alliances * Emphasising how professionals can work together, and with wider stakeholders, to improve clinical outcomes - reflecting a biopsychosocial model, collaboration with the voluntary sector and peer support * Emphasising continuity of care through a whole system and care pathway approach * Reflecting 'mind and body' integration; ensuring equitable provision of physical healthcare * Being outward looking and community facing; engaging community, family and friends * Focusing on individual needs with an emphasis on cultural appropriateness * Proposals and recommendations to retain and preserve the Trusts place as a leading example of best practice This review is in response to the changed national landscape of the NHS since the development of Early Intervention Services in Lambeth 30 years ago.
