This will be used to inform commissioning decisions when procuring Sexual Health services when the current contract expires in August 2022. The previous SHNA was produced in 2013. Since then, there have been many changes in Birmingham and Solihull to both sexual and reproductive health services and funding. The contract to undertake the SHNA will be for a period of 3 months commencing 15th March 2021 until 14th June 2021. This project remit will include: o Analysing quantitative and qualitative data and reports and summarising the findings in a concise and detailed evaluation report o Identifying gaps, opportunities and efficiencies in current services based on any identifiable unmet needs of the children and adult populations of Birmingham and Solihull. Engagement To understand service suitability, access, what works well and improvements, for example, the Needs Assessment should incorporate a level of engagement with local providers, stakeholders and citizens, particularly underrepresented groups to qualify and quantify any unmet needs. The level of engagement will be determined at the project transition stage and the engagement should reflect a representative level of engagement from Birmingham and Solihull. The types of groups this would cover (please note this list is not extensive), would be: o Young People o Women o BAME Communities o Older People o LGBT Communities o Men who have Sex with Men (MSM) o People Who Inject Drugs (PWID) o Heterosexuals o Homeless people, including rough sleepers and those living in temporary accommodation o Refugees and asylum seekers The Council will be using its free to use e-tendering system (in-tend) for the administration of this procurement process and potential suppliers must register with the system to be able to express an interest.
