## Summary

The South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust is seeking to modify an existing procurement process titled "HSH IUC Partners Direct Award". This initiative falls within the health and social work services category and is located in Bicester, UK. Currently at the tender stage, this process aims to update the existing contract for the provision of Integrated Urgent Care services, initially awarded in June 2021. Key details include the modification of two subcontracts with significant anticipated annual costs, estimated between £7,059k and £7,423k for Lot 1, and up to £4,012k for Lot 2. The contract enhancement responds to NHS England's directive for improved services as a part of the national "111 First" initiative, with completion expected in December 2020.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for growth, particularly for businesses involved in health services, urgent care provision, and healthcare technology solutions. Companies specialising in clinical assessment services, remote healthcare delivery, or urgent care solutions would be well-suited to compete for these subcontracts. The focus on enhancing the NHS 111 service and the increased demand for remote healthcare capabilities create a competitive landscape for businesses aiming to expand their footprint in the healthcare sector.

## Notice

This is modifying an existing contract award notice of two subcontracts for the Provision of Integrated Urgent Care, made under Contract Award Notice 2020/S 214-525835 published on 3 November 2020. The award of the two subcontracts were as the result of South Central Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust (SCAS) being awarded the lead contract for NHS111/Integrated Urgent Care (IUC) services by the Hampshire and Surrey Heath Partnership from June 2021. The contract award notice for the award to SCAS of the lead contract was published on 3 April 2020 (ref 2020/S 067-160620). The original procurement for the award of two subcontracts was for: Lot 1 - Sub-contract 1: (i) Clinical Assessment Service; (ii) Face-to-Face Appointments; (iii) Home Visiting awarded to North Hampshire Urgent Care was for annual costs of PS6,266k (PS43,866k over 7 years). Lot 2 - Sub-contract 2: (i) Clinical Assessment Service; (ii) Home visiting awarded to Partnering Health Limited was for annual costs of PS3,133k (PS21,933k over 7 years). As we approach contract mobilisation we have greater certainty of the additional costs above but the costs of 111 First on an ongoing basis are still being reviewed. Nevertheless, we are clear that the maximum annual value of the contracts, allowing for reasonable levels of activity growth and inflation will be as follows: Lot 1 - Sub-contract 1: (i) Clinical Assessment Service; (ii) Face-to-Face Appointments; (iii) Home Visiting awarded to North Hampshire Urgent Care will be for annual costs between PS7,059k and PS7,423k (between PS49,413k and PS51,961k over 7 years). Lot 2 - Sub-contract 2: (i) Clinical Assessment Service; (ii) Home visiting awarded to Partnering Health Limited will be for annual costs up to PS4,012k (PS28,084 over 7 years).
