This initiative targets health and social work services, specifically aimed at preventive healthcare for adults aged 40 to 74. The council is located in Barnsley, within the Yorkshire and the Humber region, and plans to implement a revised NHS Health Check service by 1st April 2018. Interested providers are encouraged to engage in one-on-one discussions with commissioners prior to the 7th April 2017 deadline, as part of the market engagement to refine delivery models for this public health programme. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the health services sector, particularly those with experience in delivering public health initiatives or community health programmes. Companies that specialise in preventative care, health assessments, or lifestyle management services would be well-positioned to compete. Engaging with Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council can help firms forge strategic relationships, understand the challenges faced by commissioners, and prepare for future procurement processes in this essential area of public health. ## Notice Prior Information Notice - NHS Health Check Background The NHS Health Check programme is a nationally mandated Public Health programme under the responsibility of Local Authority Public Health teams. The NHS Health Check programme aims to help prevent heart disease, stroke, diabetes, kidney disease and certain types of dementia. Adults between the ages of 40 and 74, who have not already been diagnosed with one of these conditions, can be invited (once every five years) to have a check to assess their risk and be offered support and advice to help them reduce or manage that risk. In Barnsley, the programme is currently delivered through primary care. BMBC aims to explore a range of options around delivery models to deliver both targeted and opportunistic health checks including a systematic call and recall element. Commissioners wish to invite interested Providers to meet with them on a 1 to 1 basis. If required, Commissioners may also hold further market engagement events to refine the model and approach. The purpose of this approach will be to: * Raise awareness amongst the provider market of the challenges faced by Commissioners. * Seek the high level market view of the agenda and challenges from a commercial perspective. * Give Providers the opportunity to start building the resources and the strategic relationships required to bid successfully for the services. * Engage with the Provider market at the pre-specification writing stage. * Help to determine the most appropriate course of action for the Commissioners. Timescales: BMBC intend to have a revised NHS Health Check service for a start date of 01/04/2018. Interested suppliers may contact AngieKirk@barnsley.gov.uk Meetings with interested Providers will be arranged as soon as possible and held prior to 7th April 2017. This notice is issued solely for the purposes of conducting soft market testing. The Council may be interested in meeting with Providers with experience of delivering the services. This notice does not constitute a call for competition to procure any services for the Council. The Council is not liable for any costs, fees or expenses incurred by any party participating in this market testing. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/446a7c3d-dd3c-45ec-b85b-31c68d79f8ce | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Feb 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | BARNSLEY METROPOLITAN BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | BARNSLEY | | Post town | Sheffield | | Postcode | S70 9GG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE3 South Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE33 Barnsley | | Local authority | Barnsley | | Electoral ward | Central | | Westminster constituency | Barnsley North | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 28 Feb 2017 at 16:04 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/446a7c3d-dd3c-45ec-b85b-31c68d79f8ce ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/446a7c3d-dd3c-45ec-b85b-31c68d79f8ce 28th February 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.yortender.co.uk YorTender ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
