This procurement process is in the Tender stage, with a deadline for submissions set for 18th December 2017. The audit is classified under health services, and the total contract value is £5,000,000, with a minimum value of £892,500. The contract is expected to commence on 1st July 2018 and conclude by 30th June 2021. This tender presents an opportunity for businesses in the healthcare and clinical audit sectors to contribute to a significant national initiative focused on cancer care. Companies with expertise in clinical auditing, data collection, patient engagement, and healthcare services would be well-suited to participate. As this is an open procurement, a broad range of suppliers may compete, thereby fostering business growth while enhancing the quality of care for patients undergoing treatment for prostate cancer. ## Notice HQIP is seeking bidders to deliver, promote and develop the National Prostate Cancer Audit, a comparative national clinical audit of the organisation, processes and outcomes of NHS-funded care for men diagnosed with prostate cancer in England and Wales. The audit will comprise: * Element 1: An ongoing continuous prospective audit of all eligible patients from their first presentation through diagnosis, treatment / palliation, and outcome from that primary event. * Element 2: An organisational survey undertaken in contract year 1 or 2 * Element 3: A national collection in contract year 3 of patient reported outcome and experience measures (PROMs / PREMs). N.B: confirmation of the commissioning of this element is dependent on the achievement of contract objectives 1 - 6 during years 1 and 2. This element may be delayed or cancelled if these objectives are not met. Feasibility work in relation to Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) testing, which has been pending for several years, is excluded from years 1-3 of this contract, but may be revisited if a future extension to cover year 4/5 is invited. Additional information: HQIP uses an e-procurement system. Please follow the link to view the specification and formally express your interest in this opportunity. Potential providers must complete the supplier registration form on the eprocurement system before they can access the Invitation to Tender (ITT).
