This procurement falls under the healthcare industry category, with services expected to be delivered in the East Midlands, United Kingdom. The planning stage of the process is currently underway, with an engagement end date set for 25th February 2019, and a Market Engagement Event scheduled for 1st March 2019, where potential providers can contribute to shaping the tender process. This tender presents substantial growth opportunities for businesses in the healthcare sector, particularly for those providing urgent care solutions such as GP Out of Hours, Clinical Assessment Services, and Urgent Treatment Centres. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary, community and social enterprises (VCSEs), are encouraged to participate, as there is an expressed interest in engaging with suitably qualified organisations capable of delivering these essential services. Businesses looking to expand their involvement in public health initiatives would find this opportunity particularly relevant. ## Notice The Nottinghamshire Clinical Commissioning Groups are exploring options on how to re-commission elements of their Integrated Urgent Care Pathways. This is driven by the new models of care set out in the Five Year Forward View aimed at national service improvements in Urgent and Emergency Care. The full service scope is in the process of being defined but will include Integrated Urgent Care requirements including GP Out of Hours and a Clinical Assessment Service and Urgent Treatment Centres. In order to inform the commissioning process, commissioners are looking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations and engage providers. A Market Engagement Event (MEE) will be held on 1/03/2019 with the aim of gathering information from stakeholders which may be used to shape the tender process and documentation. To register for the MEE, please complete the Booking Form attached to this Notice alongside the attached provider sounding questionnaire and return it to scwcsu.whprocurement@nhs.net by 5pm 25/02/2019. In the event you are unable to attend but would like to receive a copy of any presentation materials, please complete the provider sounding questionnaire and email it to scwcsu.whprocurement@nhs.net and copies of the presentation material will be sent to you. An expression of interest to attend this MEE is no indication of a commitment to participate in any future tender process nor does it infer any special status on those Providers who do attend. An expression of interest in this event will not automatically entitle involvement in any future procurement exercise. Any procurement conducted subsequent to the event will be advertised separately and all organisations wanting to participate will need to respond to the procurement advertisement as and when it is published. Providers who do not attend this MEE will still be able to apply for the Procurement in the future. Please note that this MEE does not represent a formal stage in the procurement process and attendance will play no part in any subsequent evaluation process. Additional information: This notice is not a call for competition in its own right, and therefore publication or response does not commit NHS Nottinghamshire Clinical Commissioning Groups or respondents to a future procurement, nor provide any process exemptions or preferential treatment to any parties expressing an interest to attend this event. NHS Nottinghamshire Clinical Commissioning Groups will not be liable for costs incurred by any interested party in participating in this exercise.
