Published

Description

1.) This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to inform the market of NHS Devon Integrated Care Board's (ICBs) ("the Commissioner"), intention to commission children and young people's emotional wellbeing and mental health services. The Commissioner would like to understand the level of provider interest in delivering these services. 2.) It may be that a single provider is unable to deliver all elements within the Commissioner's requirement and therefore partnership working may be required. A single NHS standard contract to deliver children and young people's emotional wellbeing and mental health services, in line with the specified requirements is being considered. The Commissioner is seeking to place a single contract, they welcome partnerships, consortiums and/or sub-contractual models, which is at Bidders' discretion. 3.) The geography covered is the NHS Devon footprint and aligns to the three Local Authority footprints of Plymouth, Devon and Torbay. 4.) The contract duration will be confirmed ahead of any formal invitation to tender (ITT) being issued. It is likely be between 2 and 7 years. At present the anticipated start date of the contract will be 01/07/2025. 5.) The proposed model includes digital provision, delivery of evidence-based interventions and a youth work-based approach. 6.) In the contract lifetime a range of potential changes are foreseeable, including but not limited to: • The geographical coverage of the 'targeted' provision maybe adjusted or additional geographical areas added. • The inclusion criteria to access the provision maybe adjusted between 0-25 years. • The access requirements maybe increased, such that the provision is asked to expand its offer, in relation to specific components, or across the totality of the provision, to enable access to more children and young people. • The commissioners may change to include a range of other partners including but not limited to Local Authorities and schools. Any or all of the above changes would be associated with a need to vary the contract and maybe associated with additional investment. 7.) TUPE may apply. Any TUPE information will be confirmed ahead of the formal invitation to tender (ITT) being issued. 8.) Total combined maximum contract value will be confirmed ahead of any formal invitation to tender (ITT) being issued. It is likely to be between £2.5M and £10.5M. This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.
