Description

NHS Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care Board ("BSW ICB"), Somerset Integrated Care Board ("SICB"), Bath and North East Somerset ("BaNES") Council, Swindon Borough Council and Wiltshire Council (the "Local Authorities") are responsible for commissioning Health and Care Services including Public Health Services within their localities. References below to the "Commissioners" are to BSW ICB, SICB and the Local Authorities collectively. The procurement was driven by the need to re-procure Community Services throughout all life stages. In line with the BSW Care Model, the life stages being procured were defined within two main groupings: • Starting Well o To provide children, young people, and families with support and care in the community, physical and emotional wellbeing, Community health and targeted support. • Living/Aging Well o Supporting self-care and prevention, proactive care and support, responding to urgent needs, rehabilitation and recovery from ill health and/or crisis. The Dying Well element explored as part of the Market Engagement covering Palliative and end of life care in all settings and bereavement support are included in the two main groupings. The procurement sought to appoint a sole provider or consortium of providers with a nominated lead provider to provide a service which is innovative, meets patients' expectations and fits the needs of the BSW population now and throughout the contract period. Services are planned to commence from 01/04/2025. The scope and value of the contract with the Provider will be based on the initial financial envelope. As a minimum, the Provider will be responsible for the delivery of the core services. There is a potential that the scope and value may change through the contract term. The Commissioners were seeking services to be delivered innovatively in a way that meets the needs of the population now and throughout the contract period. As such, the Commissioners will expect the Provider to continuously engage with stakeholders and, in agreement with Commissioners, evolve the services ensuring they are fit for purpose and meets patients' needs. The services need to work in an integrated manner offering seamless community-based care, particularly from a patient's viewpoint. Due to the complexity of the re-commissioning, and the complex nature of the community services being commissioned, the Commissioners are using a phased approach to secure the transformational change required. To enable this change and further integration of services, the Commissioners reserve the right to include the services defined as 'reserved services' defined within the procurement documentation within the contract without recourse to a further notice or procurement process. Any further investment in addition to the contract value available for core services and the additional funds for reserve services will be determined during contract term alongside opportunities to improve value for money. This was taken into consideration with the initial advert. This procurement was managed by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit ("SCW") on behalf of BSW ICB.
