The contracting process is currently at the Tender stage, with an open procurement method below the threshold. Interested parties should note the end date for tender submission is 14th October 2024 at 11:00 AM, with the contract period running from 1st November 2024 to 31st March 2025. This initiative aims to enhance wellness and productivity through smart health solutions in partnership with the NHS and local authorities. This tender offers significant opportunities for businesses specialising in NHS programme management, benefit realisation frameworks, and delivering multi-agency health and social care programmes. SMEs and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited for this contract, which has a budget of £100,000. Companies with the ability to implement effective, scalable health solutions leveraging connectivity and IoT technologies will find this contract a compelling opportunity for growth, especially given the project's focus on innovative diagnostic and virtual care services. ## Notice Objectives of the programme The Smart City Region (SCR) is the pioneering Levelling-Up programme to scale-up wellness and productivity benefits from community diagnostics, remote monitoring, preventative healthcare, and exemplar hospital (through connectivity and IoT) across the West Midlands working in partnership with NHS and Local Authorities, and following successful trials led by WM5G and others in the region. For remote monitoring that means supporting up to 5,000 adults either over the age of 65 or with long-term conditions to live at home for longer and support their independence utilising sensor-based remote monitoring / virtual care capabilities to support activities like virtual wards, care homes and at home solutions that are affordable and sustainable going forward. For community diagnostics that means supporting up to 2,000 patients receive faster diagnoses with an initial focus on bowel cancer delivered in community and home settings taking advantage of advanced connectivity. 2. Scope of this work This work will build on the phase one of the SCR benefits programme which saw the production of a benefit management framework, an evaluation and economics baseline for contribution in kind (CIK) and benefits maps. Phase 2 of this work will be to further develop this work to ensure that the SCR Programmes can demonstrate both value for money and realise benefits for the health and social care community. The two key programmes for this work will be the: * Colon Capsule Endoscopy service and * Virtual care There will be a need to test the existing benefits framework including the benefits map and benefits register with stakeholder groups to establish a set of measurable benefits to be baselined and collected over the rollout of the two programmes. The successful organisation will need to use the outputs of this testing to analysis of the patient journeys/ process maps, evaluate the findings and update the benefits framework as required. The final outputs will then need to be socialised and launched with the key stakeholders underpinned by a long-term plan to embed the benefits programme in both WM5G and the NHS stakeholders. This work will be run alongside staff from ICB organisations or the organisations they have contracted and commissioned to deliver care and therefore will need to engage with them throughout. It is essential that the successful organisation can demonstrate the following: * NHS experience with programme management * Evidential experience of NHS Benefits realisation framework * Evidential experience of delivering successful programmes across multi-agencies including health and social care ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/20fa2769-4b0c-4ae1-9163-ece3f56fc714 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure (below threshold) | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 13 Sep 2024 | | Submission deadline | 14 Oct 2024 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 1 Nov 2024 - 31 Mar 2025 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £100,000 | | 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 | WM5G LIMITED | | Locality | BIRMINGHAM | | Post town | Birmingham | | Postcode | B19 3SD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLG West Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLG3 West Midlands | | ITL 3 | TLG31 Birmingham | | Local authority | Birmingham | | Electoral ward | Newtown | | Westminster constituency | Birmingham Ladywood | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 79 - Business services: law, marketing, consulting, recruitment, printing and security ### Codes - 79419000 - Evaluation consultancy services ## Release History - 13 Sep 2024 at 16:09 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/20fa2769-4b0c-4ae1-9163-ece3f56fc714 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/20fa2769-4b0c-4ae1-9163-ece3f56fc714 13th September 2024 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
