The industry category is health and social work services, located in London, UK. The process is currently at the planning stage, with a key deadline for expressions of interest on 19th March 2025 and an engagement event scheduled for 20th March 2025. This preliminary market engagement invites participants to a roundtable discussion to collaborate on innovation and research necessary for achieving the 2030 HIVAP objectives. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses involved in the HIV/sexual health sector, including those specialising in prevention, treatment, and testing. It is particularly suited for suppliers, small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and social enterprises with a vested interest in HIV-related healthcare. By participating in the roundtable, businesses can directly contribute to shaping the HIV Action Plan, potentially leading to future procurement opportunities. Interested parties should have relevant expertise in HIV or sexual health to provide valuable insights on the challenges and opportunities in the field, helping to strengthen the delivery and innovation within the HIVAP framework. ## Notice We are looking to invite you to roundtable with the aim of having an open discussion with industry and key sector partners. This is to gain insights on the challenges that we may face and synergies we could create to understand the role that innovation and research could play in the new HIVAP which will help us reach our 2030 goal. ### Planning Information Expression of Interest Deadline: 19/03/2025 Engagement Event Date(s): 20/03/2025 Background The government has committed to end new HIV transmissions in England by 2030 and is developing a new HIV Action Plan (HIVAP) which will be published this year. Collaboration is at the core of the new HIVAP and the government is engaging with a wide range of system partners in its development, including people with lived experience, the voluntary and community sector, professional bodies, primary care, and local partners amongst others. The new HIVAP will have 5 key objectives: ensure equitable access and uptake of HIV prevention programmes; scale up HIV testing; optimise rapid access to treatment and retention in care; improve quality of life for people living with HIV and address stigma; and stabilise and support system enablers, including the wider sexual and reproductive health system. Objective We are trying to understand the steps that are needed to ensure that we meet the 2030 target of no new HIV transmissions within England and prioritise the necessary actions. The objective of this roundtable is to gain insights on the challenges that we may face and synergies we could create to understand the role that innovation and research could play in the new HIVAP which will help us reach our 2030 goal. The key objectives of the meeting are to: - Introduce the scope, approach and objectives of the new HIV Action Plan - Discuss the challenges and opportunities to achieve our 2030 ambitions and push forward progress on HIV - Identify opportunities to strengthen delivery, accountability and partnerships for the new HIV Action Plan, including innovation and research. - Identify and prioritise new asks for the HIV Action Plan Who this is aimed at: • Target Audience: Any business or social enterprise with an interest in HIV, including suppliers, SMEs, or any other audiences applicable. • Eligibility Criteria: If you work in the HIV/sexual health field, including prevention, treatment and testing, we are interested in your input as we develop the new HIV Action Plan. We would like to invite you to an open roundtable to gather your thoughts on innovation, research and anything else that may be relevant. If you are not in the HIV/sexual health field or do not have any HIV medication which is going through testing to be on the market in the next 5 years, this roundtable is not suitable. Please note that there is currently no planned procurement activity relating to the publication of this preliminary market engagement. Future preliminary market engagement notices and/or PIN(s) may be issued by DHSC and/or NHSE to gather views through market engagement (“Engagement”) on specific proposals. For the avoidance of doubt, the purpose of this preliminary market engagement is to invite suppliers to a roundtable in collaborating with DHSC to improve the delivery and of our 2030 HIV Action Plan. Since this is neither a call for competition nor a procurement, we have assigned it a nominal monetary value of £1. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007901-2025 | | Notice type | UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 4 Mar 2025 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 19 Mar 2025 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 20 Mar 2025 - 20 Mar 2030 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £1 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Planning | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | DHSC | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | East London | | Postcode | E14 4PU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI42 Tower Hamlets | | Local authority | Tower Hamlets | | Electoral ward | Canary Wharf | | Westminster constituency | Poplar and Limehouse | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 33 - Medical equipments, pharmaceuticals and personal care products - 71 - Architectural, construction, engineering and inspection services - 73 - Research and development services and related consultancy services - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 33600000 - Pharmaceutical products - 33650000 - General anti-infectives for systemic use, vaccines, antineoplastic and immunodulating agents - 33651000 - General anti-infectives for systemic use and vaccines - 33690000 - Various medicinal products - 33696000 - Reagents and contrast media - 71900000 - Laboratory services - 73110000 - Research services - 73111000 - Research laboratory services - 85000000 - Health and social work services - 85111800 - Pathology services - 85149000 - Pharmacy services - 85323000 - Community health services ## Release History - 4 Mar 2025 at 15:50 - Planning - UK2 - Preliminary Market Engagement Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007901-2025 ## Documents - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/007901-2025 4th March 2025 - Preliminary market engagement notice on Find a Tender ## Notice URLs - https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2023/54/contents ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
