Tender description

Richmond CCG and London Borough of Richmond upon Thames (LBRuT) would like to invite Expressions of Interest from all suitably qualified and experienced providers to deliver an Outcome Based Contract for Mental Health Services in Richmond Borough commencing April 2017. Richmond CCG and Council wish to support the transformation of adult Mental Health and Social Care services through the letting of a single host Outcomes Based Commissioning Contract (OBC). The new (OBC) contract will follow a new commissioning and payment approach which has been developed to promote and improve service delivery outcomes for our patients. This approach has been designed to support a more integrated and innovative approach to the delivery of adult Mental Health and Social Care services. The Commissioners are following a managed commissioning process to identify the Provider or Providers which are most capable of meeting the Commissioners' requirements. This process is referred to as a Most Capable Provider (MCP) process. The Commissioners will require Providers to be responsible for the entire patient journey. Providers will be required make the appropriate structural and transformational changes to the current models of care in order to achieve the level of integration required to deliver the Outcomes Framework that will form a key part of the OBC contract. To register your interest in this opportunity, potential Providers must access the questionnaire and Memorandum of Information via LBRuT's E- Tendering system ‘Pro Contract’ at www.londontenders.org All communications from potential Providers must be submitted via ‘Pro Contract’.
