Tender description

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the independent regulator of health and social care in England. We make sure that health and social care services provide people with safe, effective, compassionate, and high-quality care and we encourage services to improve. We do this by monitoring, inspecting and regulating services to make sure they meet fundamental standards of quality and safety and we publish what we find, including performance ratings to help people choose care. he CQC are seeking to award a contract for the provision of inspection analysis services to support inspections of independent service providers of acute, mental health, community and substance misuse services in England, and for flexible analytical support services to provide analytical support for inspections of NHS Trusts. CQC's new approach to inspecting and rating providers of health and social care in England makes use of a wide range of intelligence to target areas for investigation during inspection and as an evidence base on which to arrive at judgements about the quality of services. The Providers Analytics — Hospitals (PAH) function is responsible for ensuring that each inspection of an acute, mental health, community health, substance misuse, or ambulatory care provider is afforded the available intelligence prior to the on-site inspection days and analytical support before, during, and after those inspection days. This responsibility exists both for providers of NHS and independent care.
