## Summary

The NHS Wakefield Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) is conducting a public procurement process titled "Digital Primary Care Innovation and Transformation Hub - WYH". This project falls within the health services industry category and will be located in Wakefield, United Kingdom. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, following a tender process that adopted a limited procurement method, specifically a negotiated procedure without publication of a contract notice. The contract, valued at £509,056, was signed on 31 December 2021 and aims to establish a digital primary care innovation hub funded through the NHSE/I digital-first primary care initiative, with the possibility of extension over five years.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses, particularly those involved in health technology, digital services, and academic health science networks. Companies that excel in developing integrated health solutions, managing healthcare programmes, or supporting health system transformation would be well-positioned to compete. By participating in this contract, businesses can leverage their expertise to support the pioneering digital transformation initiatives targeted at enhancing patient care pathways across the Yorkshire and Humber region.

## Notice

West Yorkshire ICS digital programme is seeking to set up a digital primary care innovation hub (DPCIH). The hub would be funded via NHSE/I digital first primary care funding with WYH ICS commissioning Yorkshire and Humber Academic Health Science Network (YH AHSN) to host and manage the set-up, recruitment and operations of the DPCIH. Aim is to provide dedicated place-based capacity across each of the participating places to enable existing patient pathways to develop a workplan and research innovative approaches. This will enable the development of integrated approaches across the geography, that align with local plans for transformation. Additionally, the place-based support will build relationships and work to support the places, identifying unmet needs, priorities, opportunities, levers and enablers, whilst also linking with the other place leads to look for areas for joint collaboration/regional approaches for scale and sustainability. The offer is a two year contract, with the option to extend annually, by up to 3 years. Maximum potential contract length = 5 years.

### Procurement Information

WY ICS are replicating an approach that has been put in place in the North East North Cumbria ICS with the AHSN. The AHSN have the relevant expertise to deliver a consistent model for West Yorkshire. The AHSN are already a partner organisation to deliver innovation for West Yorkshire, and the hub is an extension of this work. Discussions have been held with NHS Shared Business Services, with a view to adding AHSN to a Framework. Due to timescales, it wasn't possible for the start of this project but introductions have been made and discussions will continue with a view to progressing this route for future potential procurements.
