## Summary

The NHS Shared Business Services is conducting a procurement process for MRI Assessments, classified under health and social work services, based in London, United Kingdom. The procurement is currently in the Award stage, following a direct award of an interim contract valued at £358,270 to INHEALTH GROUP LIMITED, which was published on 26 March 2018. This interim contract commenced on 17 March 2018 and is set to run until 31 March 2019, ensuring continuity of essential health services for the local population while a new care model is developed for future procurement in 2019/20.

This tender creates opportunities for businesses involved in healthcare services, particularly those with expertise in MRI operations and technology, as well as those that can demonstrate an ability to align with integrated care models. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to consider participation, especially as the Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) plans to engage with the market during 2018 to inform the upcoming specifications and requirements for a substantive contract in the future.

## Notice

The service delivers essential capacity to ensure continuation of Community Services for MRI assessments that will support the delivery of good patient experience and outcomes. This notice refers to a direct award of an interim contract to ensure continuity of essential health services to the local population whilst a new integrated care model is developed during 2018/19 ready for procurement in 2019/20. The CCG has assessed that InHealth is the only capable providers at this time taking into account the short timescale and significantly challenging budget that they work within.

The new model of service to be established will ensure integrated pathways to deliver holistic patient care aligned with NWL strategies. The current interim contract awarded is necessary to enable NHS Harrow CCG to develop and validate its specified service requirements. The CCG plans to engage with the market during 2018 to assist development of its future specification of requirements, with the intention of informing the process to award a substantive contract to deliver the new model of care from 2019. Market engagement will commence during 2018.
