The current procurement stage is planning, with key milestones setting an engagement end date of 23rd February 2018. The estimated contract value is £320,000 per annum, and a formal procurement process is anticipated to commence in June 2016, with contract awards expected by the end of August 2016 and services to start by October 2016. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health services, particularly those offering community-based solutions for falls prevention and bone health management. Companies that focus on consultant-led health services and have experience in out-of-hospital care strategies would be well-suited to compete. Interested providers are encouraged to engage with the CCG by submitting feedback through an engagement questionnaire, with the deadline for submissions set for midday on 10th May 2016. ## Notice NHS Brent Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is exploring the delivery of community based consultant-led falls prevention and bone health management to the population of Brent. The CCG is inviting interested parties to engage with the organisation on future provision with a view to seeking input and feedback from potential providers of these services to help inform the CCG as it considers its requirements and routes to market. This service forms part of Brent CCG's out-of-hospital strategy and prevention measures to reduce the harm from falls and repeated falls that risk fractures and other falls related injuries that potentially result in a hospital admission. A draft memorandum of Information (MoI) and draft current service specification are available for review. An engagement questionnaire has also been developed to capture input from providers to help inform the CCG's key decisions around the delivery and route to market for this service. Brent CCG does not commission a comprehensive falls service in the community at present, with certain falls services delivered within the envelope of our overarching community service contract. If the CCG decides to undertake a formal procurement process then this is anticipated to commence in June 2016 through a notice on Contracts Finder, with the intention to have a contract awarded by the end of August 2016; for services to commence by October 2016. The estimated value of the contract is PS320,000 per annum. Providers are invited to express their interest in the early engagement by emailing the completed questionnaire to alice_donovan1@nhs.net. The deadline for submissions is midday on Tuesday 10th May 2016 Note: An expression of interest is no indication of a commitment to participate in any subsequent procurement process, nor does it infer any special status on those providers who do submit an interest. Neither will this notice or any organisation's expression of interest commit the CCG to undertake any procurement of the community based consultant-led falls and bone health service as the CCG has a right to withdraw this notice. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0ac8dec1-7944-4fa2-80a2-f0b117852a86 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 18 Nov 2016 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | 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 | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS SHARED BUSINESS SERVICES | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | EC1N 2TD | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Holborn & Covent Garden | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services ## Release History - 18 Nov 2016 at 20:17 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0ac8dec1-7944-4fa2-80a2-f0b117852a86 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/0ac8dec1-7944-4fa2-80a2-f0b117852a86 26th April 2016 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/9b54a6c7-b0bd-4acb-99fc-1051f862a882 DRAFT Service Specification - Brent CCG Falls and Bone Health Service - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/00676f10-309e-4a8c-9403-26885f66f36c MOI - Brent CCG Falls and Bone Helath Service - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/007c9704-dee2-4e8e-b51f-7306b6ed32c0 Engagement Questionnaire - Brent CCG Falls and Bone Helath Service ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
