Description

NHS Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board (hereafter referred to as “the Authority”) invites suitably qualified providers to attend a virtual Market Engagement event which will inform the market of the Authority’s intention to undertake a competitive procurement process for the provision of Mental Health Core Services (NHS Talking Therapies Service (formally known as IAPT) and Psychological Therapies for Severe Mental Health Problems Service) on Monday 24th February 2025 12:00 noon – 13:00hrs. The Authority intends to procure a new ‘Mental Health Core Service’ provision and award a single contract to a suitably, technically capable provider. To award a contract, the most suitable provider must have demonstrably satisfied the minimum Basic Selection Criteria, including financial and economical standing, and satisfy the Key Criteria assessment and the commercial envelope. The market engagement event will offer an opportunity to engage with stakeholders and for prospective service providers to learn more about the service. The procurement process and timetable will also be shared. The Market Engagement event will take place virtually via MS Teams Webinar on Monday 24th February 2025 from 12:00noon – 13:00hrs.

The closing date for registering attendance is Monday 24th February 2025 at 10:30hrs. The service that this market engagement relates is within scope of the Provider Selection Regime (PSR). The Authority is bound only by the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 do not apply.
