## About this tender

Please note this is an amendment to the notice published on 14 June 2016. The date of the Market Engagement Event has changed to 06 July 2016 . The new registration deadline is 12:00 Noon 01 July 2016.

NHS Bedfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (BCCG) working with Central Bedfordshire Council and Bedford Borough has started work to redesign the way in which community services for adults and children are delivered. The CCG wishes to develop a clear vision of the outcomes it aspires to achieve for its population, ensuring that services are delivered in a more seamless and integrated way that is closer to people's homes.

To achieve this new vision the CCG plans to commence a competitive procurement process through an outcome based specification approach, later in 2016 to commission a Provider or Multiple Providers, who will be accountable for the provision of all Community Services within the scope of the procurement.

In order to aid BCCG in its scoping of the service the CCG is seeking to enter into an early market engagement process with interested providers. For information it is likely that the following list of current services will be included within the new service model, however this is subject to change and there is scope for additional services to be included:

### Adults Community Services

Acquired Brain Injury (ABI)

### Adult Eye Service

### Wheelchair Service

PEPS (Palliative Care Service)

### Community Beds
