This process is currently in the planning stage, with a key engagement deadline set for 23rd February 2018. Interested parties are required to submit their responses by 20th June 2017 at 12:00 midday. The services fall under the health services category (CPV code 85100000) and will be conducted in Bristol, South West of England. This procurement presents a significant opportunity for organisations specialising in healthcare services, particularly those experienced in providing urgent care, out-of-hours services, and integrated clinical solutions. Businesses that can demonstrate capability, quality, and relevant qualifications are encouraged to engage, as participation in this early market engagement does not necessarily confer an automatic invitation to subsequent formal tendering processes but can shape potential future bids. ## Notice NHS Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Clinical Commissioning Groups are exploring options on how to re-commission GP Out Of Hours service, NHS 111 service and Clinical Hub. At the same time commissioners are planning the development of a Single Point of Access which will work closely, and possibly integrate with, the Clinical Hub at some point in the future. In order to inform the commissioning process, commissioners are looking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations. Interested parties are asked to complete and return the attached provider sounding questionnaire by the return date of 20th June 2017 at 12:00 midday to the following email address: scwcsu.procurement@nhs.net Please note this Early Engagement Notice has been issued purely to gauge potential interest in the service, and does not currently form part of any formal procurement process. Interested parties should note that a response to this Notice does not guarantee an automatic invitation to any subsequent formal procurement, which the commissioners will consider in due course. Additional information: The Services are healthcare services within the meaning and scope of Annex XIV of Directive 2014/24/EU ("the Directive") and Schedule 3 to the Public Contract Regulations 2015 ("the Regulations"). The tendering process will be conducted in accordance with the requirements and flexibilities provided by Articles 74 to 76 of the Directive, and Regulations 74 to 76 of the Regulations. The Authority will run a transparent tender process, treating all bidders equally. For the avoidance of doubt, the Authority will not be bound by the Regulations or the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union or any other regulations or legislation except for the specific parts or circumstances that apply to the procurement of these Services. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/af6900b0-1e7b-478b-ad06-b66ff400beee | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 20 Jun 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Cancelled | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS SOUTH, CENTRAL AND WEST COMMISSIONING SUPPORT UNIT | | Locality | BRISTOL | | Post town | Bristol | | Postcode | BS1 3NX | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLK South West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLK5 West of England | | ITL 3 | TLK51 Bristol, City of | | Local authority | Bristol, City of | | Electoral ward | Central | | Westminster constituency | Bristol Central | | Delivery location | TLK South West (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85100000 - Health services ## Release History - 20 Jun 2017 at 14:50 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/af6900b0-1e7b-478b-ad06-b66ff400beee - 30 May 2017 at 15:09 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/397d1196-81e3-4332-9de9-618e303e7065 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/af6900b0-1e7b-478b-ad06-b66ff400beee 20th June 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/397d1196-81e3-4332-9de9-618e303e7065 30th May 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/f95f2973-8e3e-4b4a-8e75-1a07ff5218a7 Market Sounding Questionnaire ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
