This procurement focuses on providing services for adults with eye conditions that do not require hospital intervention, covering a range of needs from minor conditions to pre- and post-operative care. The engagement end date for interested providers is set for 3rd March 2022, with potential bidders encouraged to engage now. The primary location for delivery is London, with specific postal codes including HA1 2XY. The main industry category is health services, particularly pertaining to community ophthalmic care. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly those specialising in ophthalmology and related services. Companies providing diagnostic equipment, treatment solutions, or comprehensive care management are uniquely positioned to compete effectively. Additionally, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSE) that can demonstrate capability in this sector may find this an advantageous tender. Furthermore, firms interested in digital health innovations or shared decision-making tools are encouraged to engage, as the CCG is keen on improving service delivery through integrated solutions. ## Notice NWL CCG requires a community ophthalmology service for adults with eye conditions that do not require input from the hospital eye service. This may include, but is not exclusive to, minor eye conditions (including red eye, floaters etc); pre- and post-operative care for routine procedures (e.g. simple cataracts); referral refinement and extended diagnostics prior to hospital referral; and management of patients with stable long-term eyecare conditions (e.g. stable glaucoma). Users require rapid and local access to professional advice and support. Key services required by the provider include: - Diagnostics and monitoring using specialist ophthalmic equipment; - Counselling and support in shared decision making; - Treatment/prescribing for minor conditions; and - Onward referral to a specialist hospital eye service if required. The CCG has a contract with BMI Healthcare Ltd (Brent Borough) with a value of PS1,440,000.00, and with Operose (Ealing Borough) with a value of PS682,275.00, to provide the services. The CCG is currently reviewing the needs of the service users to consider how (if relevant) it can: - Develop an integrated community ophthalmology NWL-wide service, to ensure consistent provision. - Improve the use of digital data transfer. - Improve adoption of shared decision-making tools and extended use of optometrists. NWL CCG is considering options for making future arrangements for these services which may involve looking to tender the opportunity in the future. Any capable provider may come forward by 3rd March 2022 to engage with the CCG. During 2022, it is anticipated that NWL CCG will be succeeded by an Integrated Care Board (ICB). Any future contract and/or procurement opportunity may therefore be in the name of the ICB. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ddeda0c7-bfed-402b-8763-4fdb81fe7743 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 10 Feb 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 3 Mar 2022 | | 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 | NORTH WEST LONDON CLINICAL COMMISSIONING GROUP | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North West London | | Postcode | NW1 5JD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | Marylebone | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 75200000 - Provision of services to the community - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85100000 - Health services - 85121280 - Ophthalmologist, dermatology or orthopedics services - 85121281 - Ophthalmologist services ## Release History - 10 Feb 2022 at 16:08 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ddeda0c7-bfed-402b-8763-4fdb81fe7743 - 1 Feb 2022 at 12:53 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/69894dcf-368f-4966-acf1-4c48596723e1 - 1 Feb 2022 at 12:51 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5b608520-ff75-4690-9496-ede7f5455ec2 - 31 Jan 2022 at 10:06 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b8fa0fd5-213d-42cd-9987-2fdbd69bf211 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ddeda0c7-bfed-402b-8763-4fdb81fe7743 10th February 2022 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/69894dcf-368f-4966-acf1-4c48596723e1 1st February 2022 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/5b608520-ff75-4690-9496-ede7f5455ec2 1st February 2022 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/b8fa0fd5-213d-42cd-9987-2fdbd69bf211 31st January 2022 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
