## Summary

The National Health Service (NHS) England South West is planning a tender titled "Future Opportunity Notice for School Aged Immunisation in South West" within the health services industry category. The procurement stage is in the planning phase with a future notice date of 24th November 2022. The anticipated contract period is from 1st August 2024 to 31st July 2029, with a contract value of £21,900,000. The procurement method is an open procedure above the threshold level, enabling small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations to participate. The procurement is being conducted by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners located in Bristol, United Kingdom.

This tender for School Aged Immunisation programmes presents an opportunity for organisations in the health services sector to provide vaccinations for children and young people in the South West region. Interested businesses should possess the qualifications and capabilities to deliver these services effectively. SMEs and VCSEs are encouraged to participate, as the procurement process is open and aims to identify suitably qualified providers. The contract duration of five years starting from August 2024 offers potential for long-term business growth and collaboration with the NHS in delivering essential health services to the community.

## Notice

NHS England South West are re-commissioning the School Aged Immunisations Programme in BaNES, Swindon & Wiltshire (BSW), Gloucestershire, Somerset and Cornwall. This notice is an information gathering exercise and therefore publication or response does not commit NHS England or respondents to a future procurement, nor provide any process exemptions or preferential treatment to any parties expressing an interest. Commissioners are looking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations. NHS England will not be liable for costs incurred by any interested party in participating in this exercise. Interested parties should note that a response to this notice does not guarantee an automatic invitation to any subsequent formal procurement, which the commissioners will consider in due course. The overarching aim of the re-commissioning exercise is to secure a provider(s) when the current contract with the incumbent provider ends on the 31st July 2024 for an expected duration of 5 years from 1st August 2024. This is likely to be published May/June 2023. Please note that NHS England are running a separate procurement process for School Aged Immunisations in Devon, for a 6 year contract from 1st August 2023. The opportunity for this is expected to be published Mid-December 2022, therefore the above expression of interest does not include Devon. School Aged Immunisation (SAI) programmes provide vaccinations to all children and young people of school age, whether they attend state school, independent school, complex needs schools or alternative settings. Children and young people that are educated at home can attend community clinics. Vaccinations are provided, on behalf of the NHS, in line with the Routine childhood Immunisation programme which aims to prevent school aged children from developing vaccine preventable childhood diseases that are associated with significant mortality and morbidity. This procurement is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners. If you are interested in this opportunity, please provide your contact details.
