Description

NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands Commissioning Support Unit (AGCSU), on behalf of NHS England (referred to as the Commissioner), is inviting suitably qualified and experienced providers to respond to this invitation to tender for the provision of a Paediatric Contact High Consequence Infectious Disease Centre. The key objective of the Procurement is to commission a contract for paediatric high infectious consequence disease centre located in the South of England. There is already a contracted provider for the service in the North of England.

The commissioners wish to establish a second centre to treat patients, 16yrs and under with contact high consequence infectious diseases alongside the established one in the North (located in Newcastle). The aim of the procurement is to improve the geographical access to the service and increase the national resilience by having two units that can admit and treat patients with viral haemorrhagic fevers. These infections are of particular public health importance because they can spread within a hospital setting, are difficult to recognise and detect rapidly, and have a high case-fatality rate. Most of these diseases are imported into the UK.

The duration of this contract will be for a period of 8 years with the Commissioner having the option to extend the Contract for up to a further year.

Providers wishing to be considered for the delivery of these services will need to respond to the provider selection documentation and submit responses prior to the deadline stated in this notice. The ITT documentation including a questionnaire is available through the Atamis (Health Family) portal: https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome. The reference is C192660 and the closing date for completed ITT responses is 12pm, midday on Thursday 7th September 2023. There will also be an opportunity to attend a market engagement event via Microsoft Teams at 10:00am on Friday 18th August 2023. If you would like to participate in this event, please email [email protected] by Thursday 17th August 2023.All slides and questions and responses will be made available to all bidders following the event.
