This initiative aims to re-commission children's health services in the Medway region, with a formal market engagement event scheduled for 17th March 2017, from 1pm to 4pm at the Brook Theatre, Chatham (postcode ME4 4SE). The engagement deadline is set for 23rd February 2018. The procurement will involve universal public health services as well as community children's health services, classified under health services (CPV code 85100000). This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those offering community health and children's therapy services. Companies that can demonstrate expertise in family-centred care models and multi-disciplinary health services will be particularly well-positioned to engage with Medway Council and NHS Medway CCG. Participating in the market engagement event is encouraged, and interested organisations should confirm their attendance by 10th March 2017 by contacting the council as per the guidelines in the tender notice. ## Notice Medway Council and NHS Medway CCG are planning to re-commission some children's health services during 2017/18: we are proposing to undertake a single commissioning process and procurement exercise offering two distinct contractual lots of services. One contractual lot will be for universal public health services (Healthy Child Programme), and the other will be for more acute community children's health services including children's therapies. Our aim is to build a modern system of children's community health services that retains families at the centre of interventions, that links well across health and care disciplines and the wider children's workforce and where practitioners are enabled to respond to individual needs. A formal market engagement event will be held on 17th March 2017 from 1pm to 4pm at the Brook Theatre, Chatham ME4 4SE. This will be an opportunity for Medway Council and NHS Medway CCG to provide some further details in relation to this commissioning work, including areas for priority within the service specifications, themes for further discussion with providers during the commissioning process, initial consultation findings, and further detail relating to the commissioning timeline. Further information can be found in the attached Memorandum of Information and appendices. Organisations are invited to send no more than 3 representatives to the market engagement event, and to confirm their attendance by 10th March 2017 to researchandinfo@medway.gov.uk. Please include the job titles/roles of attendees and their contact details, to ensure the session is planned effectively and enable us to make contact with attendees should there be any unforeseen circumstances. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c3cfe7f4-9b16-45b4-9714-20e9bdeb1a5f | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 28 Feb 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | MEDWAY COUNCIL | | Locality | CHATHAM | | Post town | Rochester | | Postcode | ME4 4TR | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLJ South East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLJ4 Kent | | ITL 3 | TLJ41 Medway | | Local authority | Medway | | Electoral ward | Chatham Central & Brompton | | Westminster constituency | Rochester and Strood | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services - 85323000 - Community health services ## Release History - 28 Feb 2017 at 11:25 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c3cfe7f4-9b16-45b4-9714-20e9bdeb1a5f - 28 Feb 2017 at 11:22 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c3cfe7f4-9b16-45b4-9714-20e9bdeb1a5f ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c3cfe7f4-9b16-45b4-9714-20e9bdeb1a5f 28th February 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/2252b5dc-1dba-43c9-a7dc-e6241c778e9c MOI and Appendices - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/27a7ef7c-7a9f-430f-9926-1e8818681b8a - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/6f3d91b3-d6ef-441b-bb74-9020747e9147 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/bcd48c95-aaf6-4fc9-9a61-cef91dc0598a - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/444c0115-d619-43c1-8aac-2b9d7b61d987 - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/cabb0e89-974d-41b4-a922-3de4236e8e75 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
