This procurement process is currently in the tender stage, with the closing date for submissions set for 22nd September 2021. The contract value is £20,000 and the successful project is expected to commence on 4th October 2021, running until 3rd December 2021. The procurement approach is classified as a limited method, specifically through a competitive quotation process due to its lower threshold. Services related to data processing, data management, survey design, and consultancy will be the focus of this initiative. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses specialising in public health insights, data analysis, and survey design to engage with NHS England and contribute to public health initiatives. Companies with experience in the healthcare sector, particularly those familiar with vaccination campaigns or health service improvements, will find this contract particularly relevant. The insights generated through this project aim to enhance local programme delivery, potentially benefiting community health and safety, while also providing significant business growth avenues for suitable vendors. ## Notice The North West Public Health Commissioning Team (PHCT) has direct commissioning responsibility for the delivery of the NHS Public Health Functions Agreements (s.7a) in Lancashire & South Cumbria and Cheshire & Merseyside. These programmes are as follows: * Cancer Screening (breast, bowel and cervical) * Non-cancer Screening (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) , Diabetic Eye Screening (DES) and Antenatal and Newborn (ANNB) * Public Health Programmes for Prisons and other Places of Detention * Immunisation programmes (childhood and school immunisations, seasonal flu, pertussis, shingles and pneumococcal) * Child Health Information Services (CHIS). Uptake of the flu vaccine in SCWs in Lancashire & South Cumbria and Cheshire & Merseyside is low with approximately one third of SCWs vaccinated, one third not vaccinated and one third with an unknown vaccination status. The PHCT is seeking to commission an organisation to undertake insight work to support increasing uptake of the flu vaccination in SCWs. This will involve seeking the views of SCWs in Lancashire & South Cumbria and Cheshire & Merseyside to understand the barriers/reasons why they have not had the flu vaccination and solutions/reasons why they have accessed the vaccine. The information gained will be used to influence local programme delivery, and engagement with this group.
