Description

1.) NHS Devon Integrated Care Boards (ICB) ("the Commissioner"), is seeking to secure a Prime Provider to deliver children and young people's emotional wellbeing and mental health services across the NHS Devon ICB footprint. 2.) It may be that a single provider is unable to deliver all elements within the Commissioner's requirement and therefore partnership working may be required but please note that The Commissioner is seeking to place a single contract. The Commissioner welcomes partnerships, consortiums and/or sub-contractual models at Bidders' discretion but wish to contract with a sole Prime or Lead Provider only. 3.) The geography covered is the NHS Devon footprint and aligns to the three Local Authority footprints of Plymouth, Devon and Torbay. 4.) Services are scheduled to commence on 1st July 2025. The Contract will be for an initial term of 3 (three) years and 9 (nine) months, with an option to extend for any period up to a further 3 (three) years, as defined at the sole discretion of the Commissioner. 5.) The proposed model includes digital provision, delivery of evidence-based interventions and a youth work-based approach. Further detail of these aspects and the broader requirement are captured in the Specification, which will be provided to registered bidders. 6.) In the contract lifetime a range of potential changes are foreseeable, including but not limited to: • The geographical coverage of the 'targeted' provision maybe adjusted or additional geographical areas added. • The inclusion criteria to access the provision maybe adjusted between 0-25 years. • The access requirements maybe increased, such that the provision is asked to expand its offer, in relation to specific components, or across the totality of the provision, to enable access to more children and young people. • The commissioners may change to include a range of other partners including but not limited to Local Authorities and schools. Any or all of the above changes would be associated with a need to vary the contract and maybe associated with additional investment. 7.) TUPE will apply and bidders may request full TUPE information by following the instructions within the formal invitation to tender (ITT) documentation that will be provided to all registered bidders. 8.) Total combined maximum contract value across the full potential term of 6 (six) years and 9 (nine) months is £6,997,442. This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.
