Please complete your bid response/s and return via our eTendering Portal: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/soepscommissioning/aspx/Home Reference: Sussex Health - Translation and Interpreting Services 2022 (Requirements 6-7) ITB - NHS/SOEPS/21.830. The deadline for submission of bid responses is Friday 10th June 2022 at 5pm. Please note: NHS England and Improvement have announced that the Sussex Health and Care Partnership, which is made up of all health and care organisations across East Sussex, West Sussex, and Brighton and Hove, has successfully met the criteria to become an Integrated Care System (ICS). An ICS is a way of working across health and care organisations that allows them to work more closely together, to take collective responsibility of the health and wellbeing of populations across large areas. It is not anticipated that the statutory responsibility or accountability of the individual health and care organisations working as an ICS will be affected, save for the expectation that CCG organisations will be abolished, and functions transferred to the ICS. As a result of these intended healthcare reforms, the Contracting Authority, currently NHS Brighton and Hove CCG and NHS East Sussex CCG, may change during the life of the contract. e-tendering portal https://in-tendhost.co.uk/soepscommissioning/aspx/Home
