This procurement falls under the health industry category and is at the planning stage, with key activities scheduled for March 2022. A Supplier Engagement event will be held on the 31st of March and potentially the 1st of April 2022 via Microsoft Teams. The contract is anticipated to commence in April 2023 and last for four years, with options for two additional one-year extensions. This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health technology and data analytics. Companies that provide cloud-based or non-cloud-based costing solutions are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract. The need for reliable service cost information means that potential suppliers capable of demonstrating expertise in developing systems that facilitate benchmarking and compliance with NHS standards will find themselves well-positioned to support the evolving needs of NHS Wales. This initiative aligns with the strategic aim of delivering value-based healthcare and enhancing internal business intelligence capabilities. ## 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 | Sell2Wales | | Latest notice | https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=119198 | | Notice type | OJEU - F1 - Prior Information 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 | CF14 3UB | | Country | Wales | | ITL 1 | TLL Wales | | ITL 2 | TLL5 South East Wales | | ITL 3 | TLL52 Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan | | Local authority | Cardiff | | Electoral ward | Gabalfa | | 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 00:00 - Planning - OJEU - F1 - Prior Information Notice - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/search_switch.aspx?ID=119198 ## Documents - https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/search/show/search_view.aspx?ID=MAR390220 All Wales Costing System Procurement - 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). ## Notice URLs - http://nwssp.nhs.wales/ourservices/procurement-services/ - http://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=119198 - https://api.sell2wales.gov.wales/v1?lang=cy/Notice?id=ocds-kuma6s-119198 ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
