## Summary

The NHS England and NHS Improvement South-East is currently in the planning stage of a public procurement process titled "NHSE/I - HSCNA and EHIA programme for Health and Justice in the South East (MEE)," which focuses on health services within the region. Interested providers are invited to participate in this pre-procurement market engagement event, with expressions of interest (EOI) required by midday on 13th June 2022. The market engagement event will occur virtually on 17th June 2022, with further contract notices expected to be published in phases, starting in August 2022, for groups of Health & Social Care Needs Assessments (HSCNAs) and Equality and Health Inequalities Impact Assessments (EHIAs).

This procurement opportunity presents significant potential for business growth, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSEs) with expertise in health services. Companies adept at conducting health assessments and impact evaluations will find this tender highly suitable, as it seeks providers to enhance healthcare delivery within Health and Justice services. Engaging in this process not only allows firms to contribute to meaningful health outcomes but also positions them favourably for future contracts in this critical sector.

## Notice

This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice in relation to a pre-procurement market engagement event. NHS England and NHS Improvement South (South East) (the Commissioner) invites expressions of interest (EOI) from suitably qualified and experienced providers, to provide a Health & Social Care Needs Assessments (HSCNAs) (Previously known as HNAs) and Equality and Health Inequalities Impact Assessments (EHIAs) for the commissioning of healthcare provision into Health and Justice services across the South East (establishments listed below in Appendix 1). NHSE/I intend to let contracts that cover groups of HSCNAs and EHIAs, and expect to publish contract notices for these opportunities in two phases, each split into several lots to group Health and Justice services appropriately. Group 1 has an indicative publication date of August 2022 and Group 2 is likely to be issued in early 2023. Also attached is a provisional list of groups (subject to change). HSCNA is a systematic method for reviewing the health issues facing a population, leading to agreed priorities and resource allocation that will improve health and reduce inequalities (NICE, 2005). HSCNAs play an important part in guiding an organisation in effectively balancing their efforts in achieving the goals and objectives specific to their strategic direction alongside the government policy and direction of the time. EHIAs assess the equality of healthcare service delivery within a secure estate and identify which groups are disadvantaged as well providing actions to improve service delivery for those groups. Those interested in attending the market engagement event should express their interest through the e-tendering portal by Midday on Monday 13th June 2022, by completing the online market engagement questionnaire. The market engagement event will take place virtually (via Microsoft Teams) on Friday 17th June 2022, 11am-12pm. Further details of the event, including joining instructions, will be provided once the PIN has closed, to those providers who completed the questionnaire. Providers who wish to express their interest will need to register on the e-procurement system, Atamis, available on the following link: https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome Please also find attached further information about the process and the requirements.
