Description

NHS England (NHSE) would like to invite all interested stakeholders to participate in an early market engagement exercise relating to a procurement of Volunteer/Third Sector Framework for Clinical Services.

NHSE is seeking market input to inform decisions regarding the procurement and for developing relevant documents in accordance with those decisions.

Before publishing a formal procurement opportunity, NHSE would like to invite interested providers/stakeholders to provide feedback on the draft specification and to understand the capability and capacity of the market to inform any procurement strategy going forward. Interested stakeholders are encouraged to complete the Request for Information (RFI) document supplied as part of this exercise.

To register your interest and access the RFI, which includes a draft specification this market engagement process is being managed by the Atamis system. Please go to the following link https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome and click on 'View our Live Opportunities'.

An expression of interest within this Market Engagement Exercise will not automatically entitle involvement in any future procurement exercise. This is purely market engagement; any subsequent procurement will be advertised separately and all organisations wanting to participate will need to respond to the procurement advertisement as and when it is published.

The responses received during the market engagement exercise will not be considered in any future evaluation process as part a formal procurement process.

All responses will remain confidential; however, an anonymous summary of responses may be published for information.
