Description

North of England Commissioning Support (NECS) worked for, and on behalf of NHS England - North East and Yorkshire (Health and Justice) to commission Primary Care Services (Lot 1) and Dental Services (Lot 2) to be delivered from Derwentside Immigration and Removal Centre (IRC).

The basic principles that mirror those of the open procedure were followed for this procurement to test the capability, capacity, and technical competence of providers in accordance with the Light Touch Regime within the PCR, ensuring a fair, open and transparent process in accordance with NHS (Procurement, Patient Choice and Competition) (No. 2) Regulations 2013.

Under the Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012 the Contracting Authority considered:
(a) How what is proposed to be procured might improve the economic, social and environmental well-being of the area where it exercises its functions, and
(b) How, in conducting the process of procurement, it might act with a view to securing that improvement.

Accordingly, the subject matter of the contract was scoped to take into account the priorities of the Contracting Authority relating to economic, social and environmental well-being.

This procurement was conducted via the NECS e-tendering system (In-tend). As such no hard copy documents were issued to bidders and all communications between bidders and NECS, including tender submissions, were conducted via the In-tend portal.

Tender documentation was available via In-tend from Wednesday 15 February 2023 and the closing date for receipt of tenders was 12 noon on Wednesday 22 March 2023.
