Tender description

South Devon and Torbay Clinical Commissioning Group's system-wide programme for prevention, wellbeing and self-care comprises of three interlinked delivery work streams: — Learning and development programme (workforce and citizen facing behavioural change programme); — Community asset development; and — Information assets. Via these three work streams we will establish the necessary self-care information resources and infrastructure, support the deployment of the learning and development at sufficient pace and scale, and support the development of resilience within communities we will require access to, and the development of, a range of specialist resources, products and additional capacity through 2017/18. NHS South Devon and Torbay Clinical Commissioning Group are inviting bids from potential suppliers to meet the specification for a Behavioural Change Information Platform for Prevention, Well Being and Self-care to the population of South Devon and Torbay CCG. The CCG do not have the resources to deliver this ambitious programme of work at the pace required to support the New Model of Care. Where pockets of relevant skills do exist they are already focussed on supporting the delivery of system priorities. This approach also recognises that we do not have, within our workforce, all of the necessary skills available to deliver the requirements of this workstream. Many of these skills required are specialist, technical in nature, and required on an ad-hoc and short-term basis to deliver specific products and/or intelligence. The CCG need to approach this service in an agile and cost effective manner to achieve maximum benefit from the limited people and financial resources we have available.
