Description

NHS England is conducting a framework procurement to implement Digital Flexible Pools for the deployment of sessional clinical capacity in primary care. This supports the delivery of Primary Care Flexible Staff Pools and will provide increased support to local systems in deploying their workforce.

Suppliers are invited to offer a digital solution, deployable in local areas of the country, which enables practices to post available sessions, with individuals easily indicating their availability and selecting sessions that suit them. The digital solution must be able to make or facilitate payments to the sessional clinicians and process payment information to a GP Practice. The digital solution must be able to meet the requirements as outlined in the service specification.

Primarily Digital Flexible Pools will focus on the deployment of GPs, but will also be required to support the deployment of other sessional clinical and sessional non-clinical primary care roles as required locally.

The service will be awarded as a framework for the use of Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), Primary Care Networks (PCNs) and other relevant Authorities as defined within the tender documentation, and it is anticipated that a maximum of 8 suppliers will be awarded contracts. The framework will be for an initial duration of 24 months, with a possible extension of a further 24 months.

The procurement is being carried out by NHS South, Central & West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of NHS England. Interested suppliers will be able to view the tender opportunity via the Atamis website.

Additional information: The services are deemed to be subject to the full regime of current EU procurement legislation and as such this tender will be conducted in accordance with, and governed by, the Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
