## Summary

The procurement process, led by NHS England, seeks to evaluate local suicide prevention initiatives under the title "Evaluation of Transformation Funding for the purposes of Suicide Prevention." This project falls within the health and social work services industry category and is located in the United Kingdom. The procurement method is selective, utilising a call-off from a dynamic purchasing system, with the contract valued at £137,650. The tender period concluded on 24th September 2018, and the contract was awarded on 7th November 2018, with a duration running from 30th November 2018 to 30th November 2022.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those with expertise in health evaluation and social services, to engage in meaningful work that could impact community health positively. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) could find this project well-suited to their capabilities. Businesses specialising in qualitative and quantitative analysis of health programmes will be particularly competitive, as the evaluation aims to assess the effectiveness of programmes designed to reduce suicide and self-harm rates.

## Notice

Contract award : NHS England (NHSE) and Public Health England (PHE) are seeking a provider to evaluate local suicide prevention work. This evaluation will build on and complement the extensive work already undertaken by the National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide (NCIS), and by local areas implementing the Five Year Forward View for Mental Health (FYFV MH). Eight areas with high rates of suicide were awarded transformation funding in April 2018. The evaluator (Provider) will evaluate the quantitative/ qualitative impact these programmes have, including on suicide and self-harm rates, and the learning these approaches could provide to other areas.
