This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses looking to expand their services in the health sector, particularly those focusing on peer support and advocacy for HIV patients. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to submit proposals, as the procurement aims to engage local providers capable of offering innovative solutions to enhance the well-being of service users. Businesses should consider their capacity to deliver integrated services and collaboration with local health coordinators to maximise their chances of success. ## Notice NWL CCG, requires a locally based service in Brent for support to the HIV positive population.

The term of this contract is 6 months, 1st October 2021 - 31st March 2022 (value: PS25,479.00) during which time, the CCG will assess the needs of the service users and consider how (if relevant) it needs to: -Secure the needs of the people who use the services -Improve the quality of the services -Improve the efficiency in the provision of the services including through the services being provided in an integrated way.

Any capable provider may come forward by 4th March 2022 to engage with the CCG. If it is the case that Positively UK is the only provider capable of delivering the services described, then the CCG will look to award a further contract to Positively UK for up to 2 years starting on 1st April 2022.
