Services are purchased from a range of sources including primary care, community providers, acute trusts, charities, social enterprises and private providers. The aforementioned commissioners believe that everyone in Bath and North East Somerset (BaNES) should be able to access the best possible health and care services in their community and feel supported to live happy, healthy and independent lives. That's why we launched your care, your way; an ambitious project to review, design and deliver integrated community services in partnership with local people. Following extensive design and consultation work, the commissioners are now launching a formal procurement process in order to source a strategic partner under a Prime Provider arrangement in the delivery of these critical services over the next decade. The services are complex in nature, and the commissioners are therefore seeking a suitably qualified and experienced provider (or partnership of providers) of services of a similar nature. The scope and value of the contract with the Prime Provider will be partially determined through the procurement procedure being undertaken. As a minimum, the Prime Provider will be commissioned to be responsible for the delivery of following core functions: • Connecting, Collaborating, Creating Health and Wellbeing for All Connecting services and integrating care and support to deliver person centred care and support that is co-ordinated around an individual’s needs, wishes and preferences. The Prime Provider will also support the Council and the CCG as a key stakeholder in the commissioning of the following services; • Living Well and Staying Well Prevention and self-management services that are open to all. They promote healthy and active lifestyles and help people stay well and independent, and reduce health inequalities within the local population • Regaining Health and Independence Early intervention and targeted support services aimed at keeping people well, connected to their communities, families and friends, enabling people to regain their health and independence following a period of illness. This includes preventative, targeted activity to halt the development of a condition or a reduction in independence • Enhanced and Specialist Support These enhanced and specialist services will meet a person’s needs where a specialism is required or where multiple agencies need to work together to meet a person’s long term conditions or complex health and care needs. Additional details/description is continued in Additional Text below. Additional information: Due to the complex nature of the re-commissioning, the commissioners will be using a phased approach in order to secure the transformational change required in B&NES. Once appointed, the commissioners will work with the Prime Provider to commission elements of the services above via Dynamic Purchasing System(s), the specific scope of which will be determined through discussion with the Prime Provider. The procurement will be conducted through the commissioners’ In-Tend e-procurement system. More information on next steps and the procurement process in general is also provided within the Memorandum of Information and PQQ documentation, which is available through the In-Tend system. The closing date for registering an expression of interest and returning of Pre-Qualification Questionnaires (PQQs) is 12 Noon on 29th March 2016. The initial period of the contract shall be 7 years, there will be an option to extend up to 3 years. The contract value is a maximum of £69.2 million per annum.
