## Summary

The procurement process is led by N E L Commissioning Support Unit, which is seeking providers for the "London OPD Community Pathway" project, targeting health services in London. This open tender comprises four distinct lots, with a total contract value of approximately £18,160,000, and is planned to commence from April 2020. The tender period concludes on 25th July 2019, and the initial contract duration ranges from two to four years, depending on the lot. This initiative aims to support various health services tailored for different demographics, including specific provisions for BAME men and women.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, especially those providing community health, accommodation support, and enhanced engagement services. Companies, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs), are encouraged to participate, with potential benefits stemming from the ability to bid on multiple lots. The diverse requirements outlined in this procurement mean that a variety of service providers, from accommodation specialists to health engagement organisations, could find a competitive edge in fulfilling these community-focused contracts.
