## Summary

NHS England has successfully completed a tender for the "Development of an implementation plan for the Integration Index," which focuses on enhancing the collection of data related to integrated care for health services across England. The contract, valued at £73,500, was established through a limited procurement method, specifically competitive quotations below the threshold. The tender period concluded on 21 January 2022, with the contract running from 31 January to 31 March 2022, primarily serving the Leeds area.

This opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for consulting firms that specialise in health services, development consultancy, or business and management consultancy. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are well-suited to compete, given the nature of the work which requires a deep understanding of healthcare systems and data analysis. Businesses with expertise in integrated care frameworks and the capacity to engage with various stakeholders in the health sector could particularly benefit from similar future contracts.

## Notice

The Integration Index is a Long-Term Plan commitment to introduce a new nationally-coordinated data collection of the experience of integrated care, targeted at specific user groups and their carers. It will ask the different audiences a short set of meaningful questions in relation to care and support that span a number of different health and care services. As such, the Integration Index will be a source of important missing evidence about the performance of health systems across the whole of England, and is intended to support systems to identify issues and make improvements to care where this is needed.
