## About this tender

This notice is placed in order to facilitate early engagement with suitably qualified and experienced healthcare Providers (including General Practitioners, other clinical Providers, social enterprises, third sector organisations and other Providers) to provide GP Out Of Hours (OOH) Integrated Urgent Care Services and relates only to a pre-procurement Market Engagement Event.

The NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Southport and Formby, South Sefton, St Helens and Warrington are seeking to commission an integrated single model of GP "out of hours" urgent care services across the whole health economy, providing a high quality clinical service with a clear patient centred focus. The intention is to commence a procurement process in November 2019 to award a new contract to provide the Services from 1st October 2020.

The Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Southport and Formby, South Sefton, St Helens and Warrington have a vision for their 'out of hours' integrated urgent primary care medical services as part of an integrated single model of urgent care services across the whole health economy, providing a high quality clinical service with a clear patient centred focus. The CCGs have come together to procure a single service that will work closely alongside and integrate service delivery with the North West NHS 111 service, in line with the national expectations for an integrated 'consult & complete' delivery model. In the North West we have a delivery model whereby the NHS 111 service is delivered by the North West Ambulance Service (NWAS) at a regional level and which then works in an integrated and seamless manner with the sub-regional delivery of 'out of hours' primary care services. This pragmatic approach reflects the need to deliver an integrated solution but within the challenges of a large, complex and diverse population and geography.

The 'out of hours' Bidder(s) is expected to actively engage with the Providers of urgent/unscheduled care including, but not exclusively, NHS 111, general practice in hours services, ambulance service, A&E, mental health, community nursing, pharmacy and dental services, and where appropriate, social services. This type of approach of integration and co-ordination is required in order to make access to care as straightforward as possible for patients and carers, delivering where at all possible a 'consult & complete' model of care.

The contract duration and value, to be confirmed, but has an estimated value of Â£28,000,000 and is likely to be a minimum of 5 years, with an option for a further two year extension to be defined.

Providers are warmly invited to attend a pre-procurement market engagement event from 09:30 to 13:00 on Tuesday, 29th October 2019 at NHS Liverpool CCG, Fourth Floor, The Department, 2 Renshaw Street, Liverpool, L1 2SA.

Additional information: This workshop will be an opportunity to meet with the CCG, network with other Providers, hear more about the services and to provide valuable input by discussing the critical issues, challenges and opportunities that relate to future commissioning and provision of these Services. In order to book a place, please register an expression of interest on the EU Supply E-Tendering Portal reference 37470, by completing the Market Engagement Questionnaire by 12 noon on 25th October 2019. A maximum of 2 places per organisation is permitted.

Interested providers will be able to view the associated notice, draft Service Specification and register to attend by following the direct link: [uk.eu-supply.com](https://uk.eu-supply.com/app/rfq/rwlentrance_s.asp?PID=30466&B=NHSSBS) This opportunity is also being advertised on OJEU.

This notice is an information gathering exercise rather than a call for competition, and therefore publication or response does not commit the CCG or respondents to a future procurement, nor provide any process exemptions or preferential treatment to any parties expressing an interest.

The CCG are looking to establish what interest there might be in providing such a service from suitably qualified, capable and competent organisations.
