## Summary

The NHS Southwark Clinical Commissioning Group is currently in the planning stage for a tender titled "Weight Management- Market Engagement Event". This initiative is aimed at commissioning a community-based tier 2/3 weight management service for adults in Southwark, with an anticipated annual contract value of approximately £250,000 over an initial two-year term, potentially extendable thereafter. The engagement event is set to conclude on 23rd February 2018, and interested parties must submit details of their attendees by 21st October 2015. The services will focus on improving health outcomes for patients and addressing local health inequalities.

This procurement opportunity presents significant growth potential for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those with expertise in weight management and community health initiatives. Providers that can demonstrate capability in delivering integrated services, such as dietary consulting and personalised health programmes, would be well-suited to compete in this tender. Collaboration among existing providers and innovative approaches to service delivery are encouraged, making it an attractive opportunity for both established firms and new entrants in the health sector.

## Notice

NHS Southwark Clinical Commissioning Group (the CCG) is looking to commission a community based patient outcome focussed tier 2/3 weight management service for adults in Southwark. Lead Providers are invited to a market engagement event .The annual contract value is anticipated to be in the region of PS250,000 per year, with an initial contract duration of 2 years, and with a possible option for contract extension thereafter. The CCG is keen to work with the provider during the period of the contract to test and learn from approaches to enable on-going service development and improvement. Therefore this service will be subject to careful analysis, evaluation and on-going development, and allow existing providers who are currently delivering weight management interventions in the Borough to work together, either informally or via formal partnership arrangements, and be key players within the new, comprehensive service. It is intended that the service will then be either re-procured, informed by the learning from the initial 2 year, or the contract may be extended in line with the extension clause (if any) within the contract. The CCG will work with providers to re-shape the service, and anticipate eligible patients would be referred by their GP or practice nurse. An Obesity Specialist nurse would conduct a triage telephone call and triage into the relevant Tier, service or initiative. Patients would have regular specialist nurse or dietician review as well as access to health trainer, psychologist, and medical physician appointments plus individual and group exercise and healthy cooking classes would be agreed between clinical team/patient. Our aim is to deliver better outcomes for patients, so they feel more in control of their weight management and enjoy better health and quality of life. This will contribute to CCG priorities: Healthy life expectancy, Reduction of health inequalities, Increased 'patient activation' so more people are engaged in their healthcare, & More patients reporting a better experience of healthcare services Supporting people to manage their weight more effectively offers huge potential to improve the health and wellbeing of our residents. Targeted support will help to reduce inequality. Further details regarding the strategic approach and our required outcomes will be confirmed and supplied upon receipt of your application. The event will be held during early November 2015. To confirm your interest to participate at this engagement event, please submit details of your intended attendees (max of 3) to SOUCCG.procurement@nhs.net by 6pm on 21 October 2015.
