## Summary

The buying organisation, Barnet Enfield and Haringey Mental Health Trust, has issued a tender titled "Peer & Lived Experience Workforce Strategy" in the services category. The procurement, which is in the active status, aims to secure a 12-month contract for the development and implementation of a Lived Experience workforce strategy across North London Mental Health Partnership. The contract covers the regions of Barnet, Enfield, Haringey, Camden, and Islington. The procurement method used is an open procedure, and the contract value is £150,000. The contract period runs from 13th May 2024 to 12th May 2025.

This tender presents an opportunity for organisations providing staff development services, particularly in the mental health sector, to support the creation and ratification of a Partnership Lived Experience Workforce strategy. The contract requires expertise in developing a highly skilled and supported workforce while incorporating stakeholder feedback. Businesses with experience in quality assurance processes, workforce development, and co-produced training are suited to compete. With a focus on peer-based approaches and national guidance, the successful bidder will have the opportunity to contribute to improving the infrastructure and engagement for Lived Experience Workforce Development over the contract period.

## Notice

The Partnership would like to secure a 12-month contract with an organisation best placed to
support us with the development and implementation of a Lived Experience workforce
strategy across the North London Mental Health Partnership (NLMHP) which spans across
Barnet, Enfield and Haringey and Camden and Islington. A significant amount of work has
already taken place to identify our key areas of work and C&I have also developed a related
Peer Workforce strategy
this will be shared with the awarded contractor to supplement the current requirements.
We require the support of a contracted provider to develop the content and implementation
of this so that it reflects the status and aspirations of the partnership i.e. ensure BEH and C&I
key stakeholders views and feedback are incorporated and we conclude with a co-produced
strategy which reflect the Peer & Lived Experience workforce needs of the partnership. We
recognise the volume of work associated with the strategy and project to be over a 3-5-year
period. We therefore do not expect all aims to be achieved within the 12 months, however,
expect the outcomes to be an agreed Partnership Lived Experience Strategy for the BEH;
and a co-produced and commenced implementation plan and associated timeline to
accompany this.
