This initiative falls under the goods category, specifically within the financial analysis software industry. A Supplier Engagement event is scheduled for 31st March and potentially 1st April 2022, where interested parties can register to participate. The objective is to source a replacement patient-level costing system for use across all seven Welsh Health Boards and Velindre NHS Trust, with the contract expected to begin in April 2023 and last for four years, including options for extensions. This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in software development, particularly those focused on financial analysis and healthcare solutions. Companies capable of delivering cloud-based or non-cloud-based systems are especially suited to compete, given the requirement to meet NHS costing transformation principles. Successful bidders can leverage this contract to enhance their offerings in the integrated healthcare sector, ultimately contributing towards NHS Wales' strategic aim of delivering value-based healthcare through improved service cost information. ## Notice NHS Wales wishes to procure a replacement All Wales patient level costing system for use by all seven Welsh Health Boards (HBs) and Velindre NHS Trust (which provides a specialist cancer service in Wales). ### Lot Information Lot 1 NHS Wales wishes to procure a replacement All Wales patient level costing system for use by all seven Welsh Health Boards (HBs) and Velindre NHS Trust (which provides a specialist cancer service in Wales). The system needs to meet NHS England and NHS Improvement Costing Transformation Principles (CTP) considering any future Welsh Government specification which will require variation to CTP standards. The NHS Wales strategic aims of delivering 'Value Based Healthcare' means that it is becoming increasingly important to have reliable service cost information and access to the underpinning, more granular patient level classification across the integrated services (acute, mental health, community, and primary care) delivered by Welsh Health Boards. Such information is used for the following purposes: - Internal business intelligence requirements, such as Service Line Reporting, and to inform patient, pathway and population modelling leading to service change decisions. - Benchmarking with other Welsh and UK peers to identify efficiency opportunities offered by UK-wide benchmarking tools. - Completing the Health Board/Trust's annual statutory Welsh Costing Returns (WCR's) and patient level returns as submitted to Welsh Government. Inbuilt ability to benchmark with other UK organisations contributing to the procured costing system would be beneficial. Any other additional analytical functionality will also be considered, to inform the NHS Wales strategic decision on options for the full market specification. It is the intention of NHS Wales to appoint one supplier to implement a common system across Wales. Both cloud-based and non-cloud-based solutions will be considered. The contract duration will be for 4 years commencing in April 2023 with the option to extend for 2 further periods of 12 months ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/005700-2022 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Goods | | 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 | 2 Mar 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 3 Mar 2022 | | 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 | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS WALES SHARED SERVICES PARTNERSHIP-PROCUREMENT SERVICES (HOSTED BY VELINDRE UNIVERSITY NHS TRUST) | | Locality | CARDIFF | | Post town | Cardiff | | Postcode | CF15 7QZ | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL51 Central Valleys and Bridgend | | Local authority | Rhondda Cynon Taf | | Electoral ward | Taff's Well | | Westminster constituency | Cardiff North | | Delivery location | TLL Wales | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 48 - Software package and information systems ### Codes - 48100000 - Industry specific software package - 48441000 - Financial analysis software package - 48442000 - Financial systems software package ## Release History - 2 Mar 2022 at 12:33 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/005700-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/procurement-services/ - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=119198 - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/Search_AuthProfile.aspx?ID=AA0221 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
