## Summary

The NHS Shared Business Services is engaged in a public procurement process titled "Community Chronic Pain," aimed at providing essential health care services to the local population in London, United Kingdom. This service is being directly awarded due to the early termination of the previous contract, with a total contract value of £349,031. The contract commenced on 2nd May 2018 and is set to conclude on 30th June 2019. The procurement method is a direct award, indicating a streamlined process, and the tender period ended on 19th February 2018.

This tender presents an opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to expand their services in the health and social work sector. Businesses that specialise in healthcare delivery, particularly those experienced in musculoskeletal conditions or chronic pain management, will find this contract especially relevant. The successful implementation of this interim contract will allow the winning organisation to establish a foothold in the evolving NHS models of care scheduled for implementation by summer 2019.

## Notice

The service is being directly awarded in order to ensure the continuity of essential health care services to the local population, following an unanticipated early termination of the current contract with the incumbent provider. The interim contract will enable the Contracting Authority (NHS Hillingdon CCG) to have sufficient time to progress work to redesign its Musculoskeletal Pathways in line with new NHS models of care to be established by summer 2019.
