## Summary

The NHS England is seeking to develop a training specification for the Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) oversight. This procurement process is in the tender stage and is classified under the health services category. The deadline for submitting applications is 29th October 2021, with a contract period starting on 22nd November 2021 and ending on 31st March 2022. The procurement method is a limited competitive quotation below the threshold, with a total value of £35,000 located in Leeds, England.

This tender presents a unique opportunity for businesses involved in health service training, particularly those that specialise in incident response oversight. Companies that focus on research services and training provision would be well-suited to compete for this contract, especially small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary community social enterprises (VCSEs) that can align their offerings with NHS requirements. Engaging in this project could not only enhance service delivery but also expand market presence within the health sector.

## Notice

The Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) is a key part of the NHS Patient Safety Strategy. It aims to significantly enhance the quality of learning and improvement following patient safety incidents. The work will seek to describe current understanding and practice in relation to the oversight of learning from patient safety incidents and align this with the oversight requirements outlined in PSIRF. Based on this understanding and in collaboration with representative users (e.g., training suppliers and anticipated training attendees) a detailed specification will be produced outlining content to be covered during the required 1-day training programme. The training specification will form part of a procurement framework for suppliers who wish to offer training in incident response oversight to NHS providers. The content will also be used to give more detailed guidance regarding expectations in relation to the oversight of responses to patient safety incidents.
