This procurement is crucial for the healthcare sector in Leicestershire, with a milestone engagement end date set for 23rd February 2018. Interested providers are invited to respond to this initial call for interest, and they need to express their intent by emailing their feedback form by 5 PM on 9th June 2016. This project falls under the health and social work services industry category. This tender presents significant opportunities for healthcare providers specialising in psychiatric services, especially those capable of offering PICU facilities. Companies that focus on mental health care could strategically position themselves to respond to this procurement, potentially securing contracts for block booking of 2 to 3 beds with annual reviews for extension. This could create a stable revenue stream while allowing room for the flexibility of spot purchases based on demand. As public interest in mental health care continues to grow, engaging with this procurement can enhance business outreach and expansion within the healthcare market. ## Notice On behalf of the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) (East Leicestershire & Rutland CCG, West Leicestershire CCG and Leicester City CCG), Arden & GEM Commissioning Support Unit (AG CSU) is inviting the market to respond to this call for interest in the provision of a Female Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). CCGs are responsible for commissioning Psychiatric Intensive Care and are looking for interested providers who would provide the service within Leicestershire . Commissioners have provided the following information to enable organisations to take a more informed view if they would be interested or able to provide this service; It is envisaged at this time that commissioners would "block book" 2 or 3 Female PICU beds for a guaranteed period of time. This would be reviewed on an annual basis and extended/revised as necessary. Any further capacity would be spot purchased by commissioners as required, with the provider being able to manage other capacity within their own business model. If you would like to express your interest please email your completed feedback form (attached) to; LLRProcurement@ardengemcsu.nhs.uk no later than 5pm Thursday 9th June 2016. This information request is not a commitment to any procurement or offering of contracts or activity.
