West Yorkshire & Harrogate Children & Young People: Key Working Function Pilot

Tender description

This procurement is in respect of the West Yorkshire and Harrogate Health and Care Partnership Children and Young People: Key working function Pilot This process will qualify providers to deliver services to the eligible population of West Yorkshire and Harrogate Health and Care Partnership (the commissioner). This service is to be delivered under a NHS Standard Contract (https://www.england.nhs.uk/nhs-standard-contract/20-21/), which will have a term of up to 31 March 2022. The financial envelope for the term of the contract is anticipated to be: • October 2020 – March 2021:£197,082; April 2021 – March 2022:£416,029. This includes set up and staffing costs. We need to evidence by March 2021 that we are meeting the outcomes set for March 2021. NHSE requested that each region submit an ‘Expression of Interest’ (EOI) to be part of the pilots to develop the key working function and share learning in preparation for expanding the roll out to ‘early adopter sites’ within the second phase. The West Yorkshire Transforming Care Programme (WYTCP) submitted an EOI on behalf of the WY&H ICS and was successful in being one of the 13 pilots. For this pilot the WYTCP footprint covers: Bradford, Leeds, Calderdale, Kirklees and Wakefield. It is acknowledged that the EOI submission has not been co-designed due to the time constraints, but there is real scope to influence the final model and shape how this is delivered. We are asking providers from the VCSE sector across West Yorkshire, to review this specification and submit an initial ‘Expression of Interest’ (EOI) relating to the provider roles that your organisation is best positioned to deliver the pilots objectives. We will arrange a workshop with you to discuss this further; after which we will have a formal EOI process to commission a Lead provider. The selected Lead provider will then establish the Delivery providers and with them develop the delivery model.
