The procurement is in the Tender stage and is open under the open procedure procurement method, with a total budget of £45,000, aimed at testing an evidence-based intervention in various healthcare settings including mental health. The deadline for submissions is 11 February 2020, and the service delivery is expected to commence on 26 February 2020 and conclude by 26 February 2021. The primary location for service delivery is London, United Kingdom. This tender presents significant opportunities for academic institutions, particularly those specialising in adult education, to contribute to healthcare improvements and leadership development. Businesses that focus on educational services, especially those qualified in evidence-based interventions or healthcare training, would find this tender particularly relevant. Engaging in this contract not only offers a chance for business growth but also aligns with national priorities in enhancing positive working environments within the healthcare sector. ## Notice This procurement is to secure the services of a suitably qualified academic organisation to deliver an existing evidence-based intervention designed to develop local leadership skills and behaviours to support wards and organisations to build sustainable, positive environments for staff and patients. We need to test the transferability of an existing evidence-based intervention which has been developed in the acute sector, in other healthcare settings (e.g. mental health) to enhance our understanding about the opportunities for developing a positive practice environment and associated improved outcomes. The invitation to quote is specifically looking for organisations (likely to be a Higher Education Institute) to submit an application outlining how an existing evidence-based intervention can be tested in a new setting to explore transferability. Through supporting the spread of this intervention rather than investing in developing a new piece of work in the same area, it is anticipated it can enhance the key national priorities outlined above as well as impact of the existing intervention by truly exploring the intricacies of what works to improve culture and engage staff. It also allows us to test the sustainability of an existing model which can prove difficult in an ever-changing health and social care climate. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0e80963b-62d8-48e3-a568-c8f5f38147c1 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 27 Jan 2020 | | Submission deadline | 11 Feb 2020 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 26 Feb 2020 - 26 Feb 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £45,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS IMPROVEMENT | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE1 8UG | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI45 Lambeth | | Local authority | Lambeth | | Electoral ward | Waterloo & South Bank | | Westminster constituency | Vauxhall and Camberwell Green | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80000000 - Education and training services - 80430000 - Adult-education services at university level ## Release History - 27 Jan 2020 at 17:45 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0e80963b-62d8-48e3-a568-c8f5f38147c1 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0e80963b-62d8-48e3-a568-c8f5f38147c1 27th January 2020 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.mytenders.co.uk/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=JAN159129 NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the myTenders Web Site at the link provided. ## Notice URLs - http://https://improvement.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
