This procurement process is currently in the planning stage, with the market engagement event scheduled for 20th January 2017, where potential providers can engage and provide feedback. Responses will help shape the final service specification, with a formal procurement process anticipated to begin in mid-April 2017 and contracts expected to be awarded by mid-August 2017. The estimated annual contract value is approximately £9.5 million over a possible 5-year period. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those with experience in providing care home environments and rehabilitation services. Suitable businesses could include care providers, health service networks, and organisations offering nursing and therapy services. Engaging in this procurement could lead to collaboration with NHS entities and contribute to the broader health care framework within Yorkshire and the Humber region. ## Notice NHS Leeds South & East Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) as the Lead Commissioner on behalf of the 3 NHS Leeds CCGs wishes to commission a Community Intermediate Care (CIC) beds Service which will support people who have had an episode of ill health either at home or in hospital, and require a period of recovery & rehabilitation prior to returning to their own home. The CIC service is intended to be delivered within the care home environment, and requires the close collaboration of several elements - including nursing, therapies and carers, as well as good quality care home estate and hotel services. Over the next 12 months we are looking to commission approximately 190 - 200 CIC beds city-wide across Leeds. We would like to ensure that CIC bed units are of a manageable size (ca.10-30 beds in each unit), and that the units are geographically spread across the city to support accessibility and links with local communities. It is therefore anticipated that there will be multiple CIC bed units commissioned through this process, with a separate contract being awarded to each CIC unit. The CCG is seeking to engage with suitably qualified & experienced providers to inform the most appropriate route to market. A market engagement questionnaire has been developed for completion, along with a draft service specification, which the CCG is inviting potential providers to provide feedback on. The early engagement process will be used to help shape the final version of the specification and to determine the most appropriate route to contract award. Responses from the market engagement may evidence the appropriateness to award a contract without any competition. The anticipated annual contract value relating to the above services is estimated to be PS9.5m, based on a 3 year contract and the potential to extend for up to a further 2 years. If the CCG decides to undertake a formal procurement process then this is anticipated to commence mid April 2017 through a notice on Contracts Finder, with the intention to have a contract awarded by the mid August 2017 and for Service to commence by mid November 2017. A market engagement event is taking place in order to engage with potential providers to share the commissioning intentions of the Contracting Authorities, and to seek the input from providers on a number important aspects relating to the services, including the service specification. Refreshments will be available from 8.30 am, with the event running from 09:00 to 12:00 on Friday 20th January 2017 at a venue within the LS11 area of Leeds. Exact venue details to be confirmed and supplied on application. ***TO CONFIRM YOUR INTEREST TO PARTICIPATE AT THIS ENGAGEMENT EVENT, PLEASE SUBMIT DETAILS OF YOUR INTENDED ATTENDEES (max of 3) to bernie.bell@nhs.net BY 12 NOON, TUESDAY 17TH JANUARY***. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c9a7cc3d-539a-4281-b27c-ec9d223747b6 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 12 Jan 2017 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 23 Feb 2018 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS SHARED BUSINESS SERVICES | | Locality | SALFORD | | Post town | Manchester | | Postcode | M50 2UW | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLD North West (England) | | ITL 2 | TLD3 Greater Manchester | | ITL 3 | TLD34 Greater Manchester South West | | Local authority | Salford | | Electoral ward | Quays | | Westminster constituency | Salford | | Delivery location | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 12 Jan 2017 at 07:50 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c9a7cc3d-539a-4281-b27c-ec9d223747b6 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/c9a7cc3d-539a-4281-b27c-ec9d223747b6 12th January 2017 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
