## Summary

The NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit is initiating a market engagement process for specialised maternity care services for women diagnosed with abnormally invasive placenta. The engagement will take place from 17 June 2019 to 3 July 2019, with a deadline for expressions of interest set for 12:00 noon on the closing date. This procurement falls under the health and social work services industry and aims to cover various regions across the United Kingdom, including North East, North West, Yorkshire and the Humber, East Midlands, West Midlands, East of England, London, South East, and South West.

This tender presents an opportunity for healthcare providers, particularly those specialising in maternity and invasive placenta care, to engage with NHS commissioning processes. Businesses that align their expertise with the needs outlined in the market testing questionnaire will benefit from a chance to provide feedback and establish relationships with commissioners. While participation in this engagement does not guarantee future procurement opportunities, it allows organisations to gain valuable insights into upcoming formal procurement exercises and market demands in the healthcare sector.
