The tender, titled "Partner to Deliver a Campaign to Deliver Digital Capabilities in Social Care," is classified under social work and related services and research consultancy services. It is located in England, with the tender period closing on 7th September 2018, and the contract is set to commence on 14th October 2018, running until 31st March 2019. The total value of this contract is £50,000. This tender presents significant opportunities for small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that specialise in consultancy and technology services aimed at the health sector. Businesses with experience in digital transformation, particularly those focusing on building digital capabilities within the public service domain, would be well-suited to compete for this contract. As the health and care sectors increasingly embrace digital solutions, companies that can demonstrate innovation and adaptability in their offerings are likely to thrive. ## Notice The NHS Five Year Forward View made a commitment that, by 2020, there would be "fully interoperable electronic health records so that patients' records are paperless". This was supported by a Government commitment in the 'Personalised Health and Care 2020 Framework' (PHC2020)4 that "all patient and care records will be digital, interoperable and real-time by 2020". The Secretary of State for Health has committed to paper free at the point of care by 2020. Radically new care delivery models supported by new payment arrangements which are value and outcome based are driving the need for change. This requires information to flow more effectively across health and care to support the delivery of direct patient care. In order to support the health and care system to meet these challenges of today, and to ensure its sustainability in the future, those involved in leading, delivering and receiving care therefore need to be equipped to 'exploit the power of digital'. This programme, 'Building a Digital Ready Workforce', helps enable these needs to be met. Every other industry has been fundamentally changed by the digital age. Technology has delivered changes to services in these industries that are more customer focussed and that are based on analytics which enable truly user-focussed experiences. Not so much in health and care. The evidence demonstrates that this is partly to do with culture and attitude, and partly to do with capability and capacity. The Building a Digital Ready Workforce (BDRW) Programme is directly aligned to that set out originally in (what was) National Information Board (NIB) 'Workstream 6', is co-led by NHS Digital and Health Education England, and aims to support the creation of a digital-ready workforce which will impact areas of the workforce across the entirety of health and care (1.6 million social care staff, 1.4 million NHS staff in England). ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ad8ce30c-49e6-46bf-9651-44463caa9cc4 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not applicable | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 3 Sep 2018 | | Submission deadline | 7 Sep 2018 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 13 Oct 2018 - 31 Mar 2019 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £50,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HEALTH EDUCATION ENGLAND | | Locality | LEEDS | | Post town | Leeds | | Postcode | LS1 4PL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLE Yorkshire and The Humber | | ITL 2 | TLE4 West Yorkshire | | ITL 3 | TLE42 Leeds | | Local authority | Leeds | | Electoral ward | Little London & Woodhouse | | Westminster constituency | Leeds Central and Headingley | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 73210000 - Research consultancy services - 85300000 - Social work and related services ## Release History - 3 Sep 2018 at 12:32 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ad8ce30c-49e6-46bf-9651-44463caa9cc4 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ad8ce30c-49e6-46bf-9651-44463caa9cc4 3rd September 2018 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://hee.nhs.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
