Description

The virtual market briefing event is likely to be held on Wednesday 20th March 2024 1:00 - 2:00pm.

Further details of the event, including an MS Teams link and agenda, will be shared once the PIN has closed, to those providers who have registered their interest via the e-procurement system (Atamis).

If you are interested in attending, please express an interest via Atamis by close of business on Friday 15th March 2024. Please send a message via the procurement portal with the names of the delegates who are likely to attend the market briefing event.

If you are not already registered on the system you will need to do so before you can fully access the opportunity. On registration, please include at least two contacts to allow for access to the system in times of absence.

You will first need to register by following the link below and selecting 'Register here'.
http://health.atamis.co.uk/.

Once registered, you will be able to search for the 'NHS England South East - Diabetic Eye Screening Programmes' opportunity and obtain access.

This notice is an information gathering exercise rather than a call for competition in its own right, and therefore publication or response does not commit NHSE South East or respondents to a future procurement, nor provide any process exemptions or preferential treatment to any parties expressing an interest.

Commissioners will not be liable for costs incurred by any interested party in participating in this exercise. Interested parties should note that a response to this notice does not guarantee an automatic invitation to any subsequent formal procurement, which the commissioners will consider in due course.

This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intended approach notice and subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this notice.

This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.
