## Notice

As part of the NDPP, NHS England wishes to procure a Framework Agreement with 5 (five) providers who are able to provide, anywhere in England, up to 100,000 behavioural interventions aimed at preventing or delaying the onset of Type 2 diabetes in people with non-diabetic hyperglycaemia (or pre-diabetes) per annum for the initial period of the 3 year framework agreement. The Framework Agreement will include an option for it to be extended for a further 12 months in addition to the initial 3 year term upon review. It is anticipated that between them, the providers will deliver in the region of 100,000 behavioural interventions per annum. During the term, NHS England reserves the right, should funding become available, to increase the number of behavioural interventions per annum. The numbers of behavioural interventions may vary during the term of the Framework Agreement and these figures are estimates only, as precise quantities of likely purchases are unknown. The primary aim of the Service is to prevent Type 2 diabetes. All aspects of the Service should be delivered by the Provider in accordance with the NDPP outcomes and with the aim of achieving three core aims: - Support people to achieve a healthy body weight, having appropriate regard to achievement of UK dietary recommendations related to fibre, fruit and vegetables, oily fish, saturated fat, salt and free sugars; - Achievement of the England Chief Medical Officer's (CMO) physical activity recommendations and a reduction in sedentary behaviour; and - To maximise completion rates of Service Users, including across groups that share a protected characteristic. Expected NDPP outcomes - Reduction in incidence of diabetes among Service Users as a result of the intervention; -Reduction in weight of Service Users, where they are overweight or obese, and the maintenance of a healthy weight; and - To reduce blood glucose parameters (HbA1c or Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG)) in Service Users at 12 months and beyond. As well as providing a face to face Service, the Specification for the Services requires Bidders to provide a remote digital service, where NHS England exercises its discretion to require a provider to deliver this.
