## Summary

The procurement process for the "Hertfordshire and West Essex Healthier Together Website", initiated by Attain, concerns the development and maintenance of an online platform aimed at providing guidance and information regarding common illnesses for children and families. This initiative falls under the software package and information systems category and is located in the East of England. The procurement method adopted is a direct single tender action, which has already reached the award stage. The contract period commenced on 19 October 2020 and will continue until 18 October 2021, with a total contract value of £29,790.

This tender presents a unique opportunity for businesses that specialise in digital health solutions or related software services to expand their offerings, especially those capable of maintaining or enhancing existing health platforms. As the original developer of the site, Frank Design Ltd holds the intellectual property rights, thus limiting competition to those who can align closely with the established design. Businesses that can demonstrate a proven track record in similar projects and adhere to national health guidelines will be well-positioned to engage with this procurement process.

## Notice

The Hertfordshire and West Essex Integrated Care System (ICS) is adopting the Healthier Together website to be maintained on the existing ICS platform. The initiative supports access to guidance and information regarding common illness for children, young people, families and healthcare professionals. The initiative is being escalated to support the COVID response into winter, ensuring families have access to guidance and support, thereby reducing the reliance on services such as Primary Care, 111 and A&E Departments. The website has been developed by Frank Design Ltd with specialist MDT input from professionals in West Essex and is endorsed by NHS England and Improvement. This will be part of a national network to support continued development and maintenance in line with national guidance. The requirement is only available from a single source as Frank Design Ltd developed the original website and therefore have the Intellectual Property rights. In addition to this, consistency with the original website is key to the effectiveness and long-term sustainability of the project and the platform. West Essex CCG are the lead commissioner for the contract on behalf of the Hertfordshire and West Essex ICS.
