Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust seeks expression of interest (EOI) from suitable suppliers to provide services for the provision and support for a NHS Community Dental services cloud based practice management platform. This will be a replacement for the outdated and current SOEL Health practice management application. This platform will support our service in the delivery of special care and paediatric dental services. Suppliers will be required to lead on mobilisation and transition from the current platform to the new solution and provide a comprehensive training environment for all Dental services staff at clinical and administrative locations. The Trust will support project management for the migration of the new platform. Implementation programme must be completed before 1.4.2022. The new application will be a pan service replacement required at approximately 20 premises across Kent and North East London together with mobile services and directly impact some 200 staff. It is envisaged that the quantity and locations and staff numbers will vary over the next 12 months to five years. The platform is required Monday to Friday 0700Hrs to 1800Hrs with the ability to support extended hour and day sessions in accordance with commissioned service provision. The period of contract will be 3 years plus a potential extension period of 24 months, in tranches of 12 months. The core functional requirements for the Practice Management System and support package will fall into two distinct categories, Essential - Pass/fail criteria and Desirable requirements - yes/no (with comment allowed) criteria. These will be categorised under security and technical requirements, system administration, system functions and features and reporting requirements. All potential bidders MUST review the pass/fail criteria questions which are available on the Trust's website, direct link: https://www.kentcht.nhs.uk/about-us/finance/procurement-and-tender-opportunities and will require you to assess whether your product offers a yes/no response.
