This tender is currently in the planning stage, with a focus on software solutions for Infection Prevention and Control across NHS Wales. Interested suppliers are invited to a virtual engagement day on 4th June 2022 to demonstrate their solutions and should register their interest through the Sell2Wales website. Future notices regarding this procurement are expected on 3rd October 2022. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses specialising in software development, particularly those with experience in healthcare systems and data management. Companies that can offer networked, cloud-compatible solutions capable of interfacing with existing NHS systems will be well-suited to compete. Notably, the requirement includes a system that supports customisation by local clinical teams while ensuring national integration, which could spur innovation and create a competitive edge for successful bidders. ## Notice NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership are looking to procure a networked All Wales Infection Prevention and Control Case Management, reporting and surveillance system for use across NHS Wales Health Boards and Trusts. ### Lot Information Lot 1 NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership are facilitating a procurement on behalf of Public Health Wales NHS Trust (PHW). The requirement is for national Infection Prevention and Control case management, reporting and surveillance software, fully networked across NHS Wales Health Boards and Trusts with functionality to provide an interfaced system across NHS Wales' clinical systems (including but not limited to laboratory, patient management and theatre) in addition to the provision of a national level repository for surveillance and reporting. PHW are seeking to explore alternatives to their current commercially supported system in use since 2016. The purpose of this pre-market engagement exercise is to assess the capabilities of the market and to enable NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership to refine its specification and approach to the procurement of this requirement. Indicative pricing will also be requested as part of this pre-market engagement. The system must support - and be customisable by - local clinical teams, while also supporting a fully networked, national i.e. All Wales approach to Infection Prevention and Control case management, reporting and surveillance. The system must support the migration of existing data from the current system, support the import of data from existing NHS Wales clinical systems and interface with downstream systems. The system must support the creation of a single patient record of infection by linking data from these systems. The system must support bespoke and adjustable organism tagging, alerting and reporting functionality in accordance with a defined specification and support effective workflow management for clinical teams in respect to these organisms. The systems must support the recording and management of outbreaks and incidents at a local and national level and support effective workflow management for clinical teams in respect to these events. The system must support local and national level surveillance and reporting at least equivalent to the system currently in use, facilitated via both front end reporting tools and backend access to the underlying database. NHS Wales has a 'cloud first' policy. As such, the preference would be a public cloud-hosted service. However, it is recognised that some suppliers may not yet provide their service over the cloud - in such cases, consideration will be given to an on-premise solution. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/016800-2022 | | 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 | 20 Jun 2022 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 2 Oct 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 - 48000000 - Software package and information systems - 48100000 - Industry specific software package ## Release History - 20 Jun 2022 at 12:11 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/016800-2022 ## Notice URLs - http://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/procurement-services/ - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=122299 - 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.
