## Summary

The procurement process was initiated by NHS England for the evaluation of spending review pilots focused on advocacy within the health services industry. The tender, titled "Evaluation of Spending review pilots focused on advocacy," aimed to assess regional pilots aimed at improving mental health services for individuals with learning disabilities and autism. The procurement method used was competitive quotation, with a value of £40,000 in GBP. The tender period ended on 26th January 2022, and the contract period spanned from 7th February 2022 to 31st March 2022.

This tender by NHS England offers business growth opportunities for suppliers in the health services sector, particularly those experienced in evaluation services within the healthcare domain. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are suited for this opportunity. The procurement stage has already been completed, with the contract awarded to NDTi. Businesses looking to engage in similar future tenders should monitor NHS England's procurement activities closely for potential contract opportunities in the services category.

## Notice

The authority required a supplier that will provide an evaluation of the regional pilots for the learning disability and autism inpatient mental health advocacy review. These pilots are currently being rolled out across 34 different sites across England on statutory and non-statutory advocacy inpatient services to see if increased advocacy or specialist advocacy makes a difference to individuals lives/quality of care. The evaluation will evaluate all the pilots together and embed/use the evidence of what works; however we recognise a comprehensive evaluation is not possible in the current timeframe therefore a clear and robust approach to supporting the pilots/embedding the learning will be sought. We would also require the supplier to undertake an analysis of the pilot's baseline data/surveys, a mid-point review during the evaluation process and the end review. The supplier would support illustrative case studies for these pilots. Ongoing evaluation would focus on what actually happened in the pilots, any adjustments to their delivery model, feedback from families and people experiencing advocacy, and analysis of monitoring data shared (numbers and profile of who supported, in relation to what and any outcome/change as a result). By the end we would expect the supplier to pull together all the analyses from surveys, monitoring data and change stories returned from sites, combined with key themes drawn from the illustrative case studies, in order to triangulate/synthesise and produce a focused report for NHSE.
