Description

NHS Arden and GEM CSU invite bids for the provision of Consultancy Support in relation to the establishment of an effective "Operational Commissioning Framework' for a period of 6 months commencing June/July 2017.

The Specialised Commissioning programme for the South requires further development and strengthening in 2017/18 to deliver the significant agenda for Specialised Services and working the
Financial parameters set for Specialised Commissioning - South in 2017/18 and beyond.

There is a QIPP target for 17/18 of £147.8m with a current shortfall in the existing programme and risk associated with a number of existing schemes. Effective delivery of QIPP and the management of routine risk associated with Commissioning Specialised Services requires effective further development and strengthening in the form of an 'Operational Commissioning Framework'.

This programme will focus on the development and delivery of Transformational & Transactional QIPP and the further strengthening of Contractual delivery. It will build on existing arrangements to ensure alignment with CCG STP programmes and that a clear planning and delivery cycle is in place for SpecCom - South.

This support will provide immediate oversight of operational arrangements for delivery whilst establishing the most effective possible framework. This framework will look at both 17/18 QIPP Delivery and effective development of the 18/19.
