We would like to know if and how the various projects can add up to be greater than the sum of their parts and how we can sustainably commission these services in the future. The evaluation will be coordinated by the project manager, Emma Ryan who is based at the Clinical Commissioning Group. We would like to commission a person or organisation to work with us to undertake the more specialised components of the evaluation of the LWWBC project in Bristol; see the aims and objectives of the evaluation. The evaluation is primarily for Bristol CCG, Bristol NHS (including primary and secondary care), Bristol City Council, the community sector, people affected by a cancer diagnosis in Bristol and Macmillan Cancer Support. Additionally the evaluation will be shared with Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Strategic Transformation Plan (STP). The evaluation will start early 2017 and we will need a final report in mid-2018. The Bristol programme is also informing Living Well With and Beyond Cancer work across the South West. The Cancer Alliance responsible for our area (Somerset, Wiltshire, Avon and Gloucestershire Cancer Alliance) is currently submitting a bid to NHS England for the Cancer Transformation Fund, which includes resources to evaluate cancer support services across the South West. If successful, Bristol's evaluation will need to feed into and inform that work. ### Further detail within the additional information ### Additional information: Aim of the LWWBC evaluation To understand and review the current model of service provision across the Living Well With and Beyond Cancer programme and inform the development of a commissioned model for the future. ### Specific aims of the tendered evaluation Understand the costs of delivering the current model of service provision. Understand the cost benefits that could be achieved with stratified follow up to support people to live well with and beyond cancer ### Objectives of the LWWBC evaluation To develop a Logic Model for the programme to understand expected outcomes and identify appropriate indicators and measures for person-centred outcomes To develop an understanding of the evaluation tools being used across the wider Living Well With and Beyond Cancer team and help to streamline/interlink where possible To evaluate what works for whom and in what circumstances in the Bristol Living Well With and Beyond Cancer programme; this must include what influences senior leaders to drive change under the Living Well With and Beyond Cancer agenda. To assess the cost-benefit of the Living Well With and Beyond Cancer programme Inform future commissioning decisions, including the development of a Macmillan toolkit for commissioners in other parts of the UK Specific objectives of the tendered evaluation ### To contribute to logic model development To support the programme manager to build capacity across the wider living well with and beyond cancer team including the development of evaluation tools, embedding data collection, analysis and improvement. To undertake agreed qualitative and formative elements of the evaluation such as case studies and focus groups with people affected by cancer and relevant clinicians Specifically look at the cost-benefits of stratified follow-up of cancer patients and how resources could be used differently To work with the programme manager to present data in ways that meet the needs of commissioners to help inform decision making We do not want to be prescriptive in our requirements or the approach to the evaluation. However, we would like the evaluation to follow the following principles: • Based on the needs and impact on people affected by cancer, their carers and staff and volunteers supporting them • Based on learning and continuous quality improvement; the programme is not a static set of projects but needs to reflect the ever changing reality of peoples' lives and the environment they live in • Based on meaningful involvement; we need to hear the voices of seldom heard groups to plan and deliver services that better meet their needs • Be collaborative; there are lots of people involved in this programme of work and the evaluation needs to be something we can all be proud of As such, in partnership with the Living Well With and Beyond Cancer core team you will be required to: • Design an appropriate evaluation approach, sett Read full description ## CPV classification Evaluation consultancy services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/91a4f6b3-9c96-46b3-b06a-f2bf1be55cc4) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
