The objective is to enhance service delivery by offering an up-to-date, well-governed documentation repository. The engagement end date for this tender is scheduled for the 9th of May 2023. This procurement falls under the industry category of IT services and health services, with a focus on consulting, software development, and support. This tender provides an opportunity for SMEs and VCSEs to participate in supplying a crucial healthcare solution. Businesses involved in IT services, especially those with expertise in consulting and software development, are well-suited to compete in this procurement process. The project requires the migration of data from various systems and aims to understand current and emerging practices in the market. Stakeholders are invited to provide insights by submitting a Market Insights Questionnaire by the 9th of May 2023. ## Notice BOB ICB are researching options for the provision of a clinical decision support solution (CDSS) for use across the BOB ICB footprint. The CDSS will act as a repository for documentation including, but not limited to: - Local and Regional clinical management guidelines and protocols; - Referral pathways; - Diagnostic tools; - Medicines and prescribing guidance; - Forms for referral or investigation where those do not integrate into a clinical system; - Information leaflets; - Our aim is to improve service delivery by accessibly providing the most up to date, well governed documentation. There must be contingencies in a solution for migration of data from a mixed economy of pre-existing systems.
