NHS Kernow Clinical Commissioning Group - Specialist and Targeted Children and Young Peoples Community Health Service

Tender description

The new Specialist and Targeted Community Health Service for Children and Young People covers a broad range of health and wellbeing services which support the physical and mental health needs of children and young people up to their 18th birthday. Each child is unique and has individual health needs which are likely to change across their lifetime. The need for a specialist or targeted health service may be in response to these wide ranging needs, which may arise from congenital or acquired physical and learning disabilities, chronic conditions, acute episodes of illness or injury or emotional and mental health problems. This is a procurement for healthcare services falling within Schedule 3 (Social and Other Specified Services) of the Public Contracts Regulation 2015 (the 2015 Regulations). Regulation 120 of the 2015 Regulations exempt CCGs from the requirements of the new regulations for the procurement of healthcare services commenced before 18 April 2016. Therefore, the Public Contracts Regulations 2006 (as amended) (the 2006 Regulations) together with NHS (Procurement, Patient Choice and Competition) (No.2) Regulations 2013 remain relevant and apply to the conduct of this procurement exercise. Accordingly, the CCG is voluntarily advertising this requirement in the OJEU given the flexibilities applying to Part B services under the 2006 Regulations. The CCG intends to conduct a negotiated procedure similar to the form of competition set out in the 2006 Regulations. However, the CCG in procuring a Part B services contract is not bound by many of the formalities of the 2006 Regulations and reserves the right to vary the form and manner of the competition accordingly.
