This procurement falls under the specialised training services category and is located in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The tender is currently in the award stage, with an awarded contract value of £36,960 and a contract period running from 8th October 2019 to 7th October 2020. The procurement was conducted using an open procedure, with the tender originally closing on 30th August 2019. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in training and support services within the healthcare sector, particularly those adept at digital communication solutions and data security. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly encouraged to engage, as these groups are well-suited to offer the required assistance to care homes/providers as they navigate data requirements and secure email access mandated by the NHS. As care homes strive to enhance their technological capabilities, providers with relevant expertise can position themselves as key partners in the evolving landscape of healthcare communications. ## Notice The Nottingham and Nottinghamshire CCG is made up of the Greater Nottingham Clinical Commissioning Partnership (The CCP) and Mid-Nottinghamshire CCGs. The CCP and Mid-Notts CCGs are committed to delivering the NHS England Enhanced Healthcare in Care Homes (EHCH) framework to all homes across the ICS. Element seven of the Framework "Harnessing Data and Technology" is the requirement for homes to have access to linked health and social care data sets, access to the care record and secure email, and better use of technology in care homes. The "Axe the Fax" scheme, part of the NHS Long Term Plan, will see all fax machines across Nottinghamshire switched off and removed by April 2020. Alternative and secure communication methods must be in place by this date. To enable the sector to access NHS Mail, training and expertise is required to support care homes/providers to complete the Data Security & Protection Toolkit (DSPT) and register for NHS Mail. The CCGs seek a suitably qualified and experienced Supplier to deliver a training programme (the Service) which includes the following: 1. Training on how to complete the DSPT for every care home/provider 2. Completion of the DSPT to minimum "Entry Level" 3. Administration, support and resources for providers The Supplier will respond to queries and provide additional administrative and technical support in a timely manner so as not to delay the process or result in additional work for the Commissioners. Resources such as draft templates, outline documents and flow-charts should be provided. 4. Ensuring providers apply for and access NHS Mail The Supplier will ensure that once the home/provider has completed the DSPT, the application for NHS Mail is completed. 5. Progress reports and feedback The service will need to be able to deliver the above, broken down by both staffing and skill groups. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/75cc025f-2741-4026-8ca0-7362b955e7b1 | | Notice type | Award Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Large | | All stages | Award | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Apr 2020 | | Submission deadline | 30 Aug 2019 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | 6 Oct 2019 | | Contract period | 7 Oct 2019 - 7 Oct 2020 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £37,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | £36,960 | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Complete | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Active | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS ARDEN AND GREATER EAST MIDLANDS COMMISSIONING SUPPORT UNIT | | Locality | NOTTINGHAM | | Post town | Nottingham | | Postcode | NG1 6GN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF1 Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire | | ITL 3 | TLF14 Nottingham | | Local authority | Nottingham | | Electoral ward | Castle | | Westminster constituency | Nottingham East | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## Supplier | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Number of suppliers | 1 | | Supplier names | KALEIDOSCOPE CONSULTANTS | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 80 - Education and training services ### Codes - 80510000 - Specialist training services ## Release History - 23 Apr 2020 at 08:51 - Award - Award Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/75cc025f-2741-4026-8ca0-7362b955e7b1 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/75cc025f-2741-4026-8ca0-7362b955e7b1 23rd April 2020 - Awarded contract notice on Contracts Finder - https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=29602&B=UK Further information and the ITT documentation can be found at https://uk.eu-supply.com/login.asp?B=agcsu ID 36647 ## Notice URLs - https://uk.eu-supply.com/login.asp?B=agcsu - https://www.nottinghamcity.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
