NWL0071 Provision of ASD/LD CYP Transition Practitioners in North West London

Tender description

NWL CCG requires the provision of ASD/LD CYP Transition Practitioners services in Inner Cluster - Kensington & Chelsea, Westminster and Hammersmith & Fulham. The aim of the service is to provide service users access to a range of services available to CYP aged 14-25 with mental health problems. The service supports all the borough's ICP strategic priorities for CYP. ASD is a key focus area. Furthermore, the service specifically supports the mental health of parents / carers of Autistic children which in turn supports the mental health and wellbeing of their children and young people (also an ICP strategic priority) by strengthening the home/school/work environments. The CCG currently has contract arrangements in place with the Mencap Hammersmith & Fulham until 31st March 2022. The purpose of this PIN is to be transparent about the CCG's intentions to initiate another 18 month contract with the current provider while considering options for making future arrangements for this service. Providers capable to deliver the service may come forward by 29th April 2022 to engage with the CCG. In your response to this opportunity, please advise your interest and demonstrate capacity and capability to deliver this service via: https://airtable.com/shr52NBGIuyGSsvoY If it is that the Mencap Hammersmith & Fulham are the only provider capable of delivering the service, then the CCG will look to award a further contract to the provider for up to 18 months beyond April 2022. During 2022, it is anticipated that NWL CCG will be succeeded by an Integrated Care Board (ICB). Any future contract and/or procurement opportunity may therefore be in the name of the ICB.
