## Summary

NHS England is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "IT Requirements for Personalised Care." This initiative is aimed at sourcing information technology solutions to support personalised approaches in health and social care, specifically through Integrated Personal Commissioning and personal health budgets. The planning phase includes a market engagement notice published on 15th February 2017, with a key milestone deadline for stakeholder engagement set for 23rd February 2018. The procurement encompasses systems and technical consultancy services, as well as custom software development and systems analysis, with solutions expected to meet prescribed core functional requirements.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for IT suppliers and businesses specialising in software development, systems consultancy, and support services. Companies that can develop innovative IT solutions tailored to the needs of service users, particularly those involved in personalised care, would be well-positioned to compete. Engaging with the NHS England’s eSourcing portal will allow interested parties to express their interest in this market engagement, positioning them for potential future contracts as NHS England assesses available IT solutions in this growing sector.

## Notice

NHS England is leading a process on behalf of and with clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) across England, to ensure that information technology (IT) solutions that support the personalisation agenda in health and social care, specifically the rollout of Integrated Personal Commissioning (IPC)1 and personal health budgets (PHBs)2, are high quality and represent value for money. The specification document sets out the expected functional requirements of these IT solutions. The requirements have been developed with CCGs, local authorities and other local partners, and with people with experience of personalised care. The requirements are intended to be used by IT suppliers in order to develop appropriate solutions that take into account the needs of all service users, including those with PHBs and people in IPC cohorts, and support the delivery of the intended benefits from more personalised approaches to care. The document sets out a number of core requirements that all solutions should comply with, and additional functionality that supports the principles of personalisation. This will allow different solutions to meet different system and organisational needs, and will enable flexibility and innovation. IT suppliers are invited to respond to the document, setting out how their IT solutions fulfil these requirements. This is the first stage in a process through which NHS England will assess the relevant IT solutions currently available in the market to: Ensure that they meet the core functional requirements. Clarify and agree which additional functionality they offer, meeting all additional requirements within the relevant functional area. Clarify the commercial model employed or proposed for each of the solutions.
