Description

NHS East and North Hertfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (ENHCCG) as the Lead Commissioner, on behalf of NHS Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group (HVCCG) and NHS West Essex Clinical Commissioning Group (WECCG) (collectively referred to as the Commissioners) are inviting suitably qualified and experienced providers to Bid to deliver the Service(s), by responding to this opportunity as required and described within the published tender.

The service will be available to all patients registered with NHS East and North Hertfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (ENHCCG), NHS Herts Valleys Clinical Commissioning Group (HVCCG), or NHS West Essex Clinical Commissioning Group (WECCG).

The service is being procured on an activity-based contract with maximum tariffs, further details of which may be found in the tender documentation. The contract value has been stated in this notice and is indicative based on 19/20 values and is subject to increase or decrease dependent upon activity; this value is also the service TOTAL, not indicative of one contract.

As a result of this procurement exercise an agreement will be established with a maximum of 5 successful Bidder(s) for a period of 5 years with the Commissioner having the option to extend the Contract for up to a further 2 years.

Should an insufficient number of compliant bids be received, the Commissioner(s) reserve the right to re-advertise the tender, or if in the future it becomes apparent this number of contracts does not provide sufficient capacity then again, the Commissioner(s) reserve the right to re-advertise without re-engagement with whomever may then be a current Provider. Conditions where the Commissioner's may award without re-tendering are contained within the published tender documentation.

The service is a Schedule 3 Service and is being procured under the Light Touch Regime (LTR) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015.

The current contract(s) for the Services will end on 30th April 2021 and as a result the successful Provider is expected to be fully operational, providing services from 1st May 2021.

Deadline for receipt of ITT submissions from Bidders is 5pm 27th October 2020.

Prospective Bidders must ensure they read all the documentation published within e-procurement portal (EU-Supply) for all the relevant detail.
