Description
NHS SBS are acting on behalf of NHS Heywood, Middleton and Rochdale Clinical Commissioning Group ('the Contracting Authority')) to obtain a Provider to deliver a clinically safe and competent Core+ 2 Service which is designed to improve outcomes and reduce variation across the whole of the Rochdale Borough covering a population base of approximately 230,000 patients. The Provision of the Core+ 2 Service consists of seven themes, with each theme containing sub indicators, of which can be viewed within the Service Specification located on the EU-Supply Portal. The Contracting Authority seeks responses from interested Providers who wish to deliver the Service as set out in the Service Specification. Interested Providers must complete and submit a Qualification Questionnaire (QQ). Providers are asked to indicate their proposed bidding model within their QQ response. Where Bidder Members are involved in the proposed model they should also complete the required sections of the QQ. Full details of this can be found in the Bidder Instruction Document. All documents are available electronically via EU Supply - https://nhssbs.eu-supply.com. Please see the QQ Bidder Instruction Document for an overview of the procurement process. The QQ includes Grounds for Exclusion, Economic and Financial Standing and Technical and Professional Ability including:
- Contract Specific Technical Questions: A series of scored questions under the criteria of: (1) Deliverability; (2) Quality; (3) Integration and Transformation; and (4) Organisational Sustainability. Some questions ask Bidders to refer to previous experience. Other questions ask Bidders to explain their understanding of local requirements for the Core+2 Service and in some instances their proposed approach to delivery of the Service. This flexibility of approach is utilised as permitted under the 'light touch regime'.
- Standard Technical Questions: A series of Pass/Fail questions dealing with aspects relevant to service provision, for example, CQC Registration, Insurances, Regulatory etc. This will be a Qualification Stage followed by an Award Stage. The Award Stage will involve invitation of proposals which will be evaluated against award criteria and is also likely to include strategic dialogue. Further information will be provided in due course. The contract will be awarded without further advertisement of this opportunity and there will be no further opportunity to express interest. The indicative affordability threshold is £7,400,000 per annum and the Contract will be for a duration of 3 years. The QQ documentation should be completed and submitted by 5pm on 20th December 2017.
