## Summary

The NHS South West Commissioning Support is currently in the planning stage for a procurement process titled "NHS England and NHS Improvement South - Market Engagement - Healthcare Services at HMP YOI Winchester." The initiative falls under the health and social work services industry category, and it aims to engage providers who can deliver integrated primary healthcare services at HMP Winchester. Key dates include the engagement end date on 7th August 2019 and an interactive market engagement workshop scheduled for 21st August 2019, designed to gather feedback on the procurement strategy. The anticipated start date for contract execution is 1st July 2020, with the service location being the South East region of the United Kingdom.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in healthcare services, particularly those with the capacity to deliver comprehensive primary care, mental health support, and substance misuse services within a prison setting. Organisations capable of providing integrated care, characterised by seamless service delivery and collaboration among various health specialties, will be well-positioned to compete. Interested providers are encouraged to participate in the forthcoming market engagement, allowing them to align their capabilities with the needs of NHS England and potentially establish a prime provider role or act as subcontractors for specialised services.

## Notice

NHS England and NHS Improvement South requests Expressions of Interest from providers with the capacity and capability to provide an outcome focused, integrated primary healthcare service, equivalent to that available to the local community for HMP Winchester. The service will include an inpatient facility capable of providing a comprehensive range of services in-house to include physical health, mental health and substance misuse services. The contract is due to begin on 1st July 2020. NHS England will commission a prime provider model for prison healthcare services in order to support integrated, patient centred care across the full range of service specialties required to manage the complex healthcare needs of those in the prison settings. NHS England will hold a contract with the prime provider, who in turn can directly provide care and/or subcontract care to other specialist providers. The prime provider will also be responsible for ensuring that all healthcare services operating within the prison work in an integrated way, delivering seamless care pathways. Services will be supportive of each other and the patient, minimising repetition and handoffs. Services under the prime provider model will be accountable not only for their own area of specialism but also to work together to contribute to the functioning of the healthcare services as a whole. The prime provider will hold overall clinical, governance and financial accountability for healthcare services in the prisons, coordinating provision and distributing funding etc. HMP YOI Winchester was built in 1846 and is typical of the Victorian prison, radial design. It is currently a Category B Local prison that serves the local courts, with a small 129 bed Category C Resettlement Unit, named West Hill. Winchester has an operational capacity of approx. 700 and is able to take men from the age of 18 upwards. There is full time healthcare provision, with a dedicated bed inpatient facility and an award winning Family Intervention Service. Further information about healthcare and the prison can be found in the overview document attached and provided within the In-Tend portal. The services included in the contract are: * GP Provision * Primary Care Nursing and Admin service * Pharmacy Services-Including mechanism for OOH provision * Inpatient Unit facility * Substance Misuse Services (including Substance Misuse wing) * Optometry * Physiotherapy * Podiatry * Tissue Viability * Continence services * Dietetics * Primary and Secondary Mental Health and Learning Disability Services * Sexual Health Services * Health Promotion and Prevention * Dental services NHS England and the local authority are also exploring options for integrating social care provision. Additional information: NHS England and NHS Improvement intend to conduct pre-tender face to face market engagement with potential prime providers, currently scheduled for 21st August. The Commissioner is expecting that this engagement will be an interactive workshop style event based in Oxford, which will be an opportunity for prime providers to gain further understanding of the Commissioner's intentions and provide feedback to inform the final specification and procurement / contracting strategy. Further details of the event including venue, confirmed location and time will be provided to those prime providers who express an interest, once the PIN has closed. If you are interested in this opportunity, please complete the provider market engagement questionnaire attached to this notice and return via the E-procurement system In-Tend. Full details of how to return your questionnaire can be found below. Please return by 12 noon 7th August 2019. This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioners. This notice is an information gathering exercise rather than a call for competition in its own right, and therefore publication or response does not commit NHS England and NHS Improvement or respondents to a future procurement or to any award of contracts, nor provide any process exemptions or preferential treatment to any parties expressing an interest. Commissioners are looking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations. Interested providers will be able to view the provider market event opportunity via the 'current tenders' list on the e-procurement system In-Tend: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/scwcsu/aspx/Home If you are not already registered on the system you will need to do so before you can fully access the opportunity and return your questionnaire. On registration, please include at least two contacts to allow for access to the system in times of absence. The procurement exercise will be undertaken with potential prime providers, but specialist providers of the services being commissioned may also respond to this notice if they would like Commissioners to pass their contact details on to potential prime providers. Please ensure that you indicate in your response whether your organisation is expressing an interest as a potential prime provider or specialist provider in order for your details to be passed on as a potential sub-contractor if applicable. The services are healthcare services falling within Schedule 3 to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("the Regulations") which are not subject to the full regime of the Regulations, but instead governed by the "Light Touch Regime" contained within Chapter 3, Section 7 of the Regulations (Regulations 74 to 77).
