The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, and the deadline for submission of tenders is set for 21st May 2021. The project value is estimated at £900,000, and the contract period is scheduled to begin on 10th June 2021, continuing until 12th June 2026. The tender follows an open procedure, allowing a wide range of bidders to participate, and is primarily categorised under software and information systems. This tender offers substantial opportunities for businesses that specialise in IT services, particularly those with expertise in software development and consultancy within the healthcare sector. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise organisations (VCSEs) are encouraged to submit proposals, as the procurement process is designed to be inclusive and accessible. Given the focus on a person-centred care approach, suppliers with experience in developing health-related information systems will find this tender especially relevant. ## Notice Northumberland County Council (for its own benefit and for the benefit of Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust) is seeking to commission a "person-centred care information system" to support a range of activities including the Council's statutory adult social care functions and related functions of local NHS organisations. A core element of the requirement is support for the statutory assessment, care and support planning and commissioning functions of the Council as a social services Authority, most of which are carried out by staff employed by Northumbria Healthcare NHS FT under a partnership agreement. Further details of the Contracting Authority's requirements under the Contract and other relevant information are detailed in the Specification at Schedule 2. Northumberland County Council is simultaneously establishing a framework for consultancy services under which the successful supplier for the above core services is also to be the sole supplier. This is to enable Northumberland Council, Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust and/or their respective Affiliates to enter into Call-Off Contracts for consultancy services with the successful supplier, having already met relevant procurement requirements. There is no obligation on Northumberland County Council or the supplier to enter into any particular Call-Off Contract, or any minimum volume of Call-Off Contracts.
