Tender description

The purpose of this PIN is to initiate market engagement and is not being used as a call for competition. The PIN is intended to: 1. Inform the market of a potential future procurement process for the Dudley MCP (And therefore enable the market to begin to plan for this) 2. Advise of a market engagement event which will be held on the afternoon of the 19.1.2017 at the Copthorne Hotel in Brierley Hill, Dudley. Whilst it is expected that the contract will be awarded to a single legal entity for the entirety of service provision, the event is intended for interested parties (i.e potential providers, partners or sub-contractors to the MCP) where they believe they have the capacity and capability to provide an element of the scope of services and/or to support the delivery of its contracted requirements. NHS Dudley CCG, in conjunction with Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council, intends to commission a Multi-specialty Community Provider (MCP) for the delivery of a range of community-based health and care services for the registered patient population covered by the CCG and resident population of the Council. It is anticipated that the MCP will, in summary:- — hold a contract of up to 15 years; — manage a single, whole-population budget; — transform access to and delivery of community health and care services; — meet a defined set of outcome and performance measures. The services to be provided by the MCP are likely to include (among others):- — community-based physical health services; — some existing out-patient services; — primary medical services; — urgent care and primary care out of hours services; — adult social care services; — mental health services; — learning Disability Services; — end of life care; — activities currently carried out by the CCG.
