The procurement process, currently in the planning stage, is set to commence in September 2022, with a contract duration of three years starting from 1st April 2023, and an option to extend for a further two years. The aim is to engage service providers capable of delivering health checks to residents aged 40-74, with a strong emphasis on reaching hard-to-reach communities, utilising digital solutions, and effectively demonstrating social value. The planned procurement notice was officially published on 15th July 2022. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those focusing on community engagement and health promotion. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be particularly well-suited to compete, as they can offer tailored local solutions that align with the programme's objectives. The successful bidder will not only contribute to public health but also enhance their business footprint in the community while generating additional social value for local economies. ## Notice NHS HEALTH CHECK PROGRAMME This is a notice of intent to publish a future tender opportunity. The national NHS Health Check programme was launched in England in 2009 to provide vascular risk assessment checks for those in the 40 -74 year age group, to be implemented appropriately according to the needs of the local population. Residents attend a face-to-face consultation where they answer a series of questions, and tests are carried out to determine their risk of developing heart disease, stroke, diabetes and kidney disease. Local Authorities have been responsible for the programme since 2013 in order to offer the risk assessment element of the NHS Health Check to their entire eligible population every five years, improve the percentage of people taking up the offer, working towards an aspiration of 75% of those offered a Health Check (or 15% each year of those eligible). Going forward the service must take into account emerging developments around Digital NHS Health Checks (to complement face to face provision), engaging with hard-to-reach communities via the Healthy Inequality Community Champions, and providing relevant information regarding HIV & STI screening, PrEP and point-of-care HIV testing. Lewisham are looking to commission a provider to deliver the contract over a duration of 3 years from 1st April 2023 with an option of a 2 year extension. The Procurement Process will start in September 2022. Providers will be expected to evidence social value as part of their bid - this is the additional value on top of the contracted service that providers create for the local economy, communities, and local area. Further information will be included in the tender pack. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/de7ba142-9af8-400f-80ee-a33e86b73ace | | Notice type | Planned Procurement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 15 Jul 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Sep 2022 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 31 Mar 2023 - 31 Mar 2027 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | LONDON BOROUGH OF LEWISHAM | | Locality | CATFORD | | Post town | South East London | | Postcode | SE6 4RU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI44 Lewisham and Southwark | | Local authority | Lewisham | | Electoral ward | Rushey Green | | Westminster constituency | Lewisham East | | Delivery location | TLC North East (England), TLD North West (England), TLF East Midlands (England), TLG West Midlands (England), TLH East (England), TLJ South East (England), TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85100000 - Health services ## Release History - 15 Jul 2022 at 14:00 - Planning - Planned Procurement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/de7ba142-9af8-400f-80ee-a33e86b73ace ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/de7ba142-9af8-400f-80ee-a33e86b73ace 15th July 2022 - Future opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - http://www.lewisham.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
