Local Vaccination Outreach Programme - South West - Lot 4 Devon
Authority: NHS England (Central government)·Consortium: 2 public authorities
What is being bought7 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionNHS England South West (the Commissioner) sought to secure Provider(s) with the capability and capacity to deliver Local Vaccination Outreach services in line with the specified requirements. The outreach services aim to identify and address disparities in the uptake of vaccinations throughout the life course. The service is intended to support mitigation of gaps in core commissioned services and to support responses to outbreaks where required.
The outreach service was designed to provide a versatile response to identified need and to collaborate with existing vaccination providers within the geography to support addressing vaccination gaps and to complement, rather than duplicate, existing commissioned vaccination services. This includes the delivery of all age vaccinations and actively seeking individuals and population groups with low vaccine uptake and coverage who were less likely to access core vaccination services.
The tailored outreach vaccination service is intended to run in parallel with an inclusive core delivery approach.
Bidders were encouraged to explore opportunities for collaboration where this could deliver enhanced value and efficiency. Collaborative working is expected to help optimise resources, share expertise, and reduce duplication, benefiting service delivery and outcomes. Collaborative approaches could include consortium arrangements, subcontracting, or strategic partnerships leveraging complementary strengths. Bidders were required to clearly outline any proposed collaborative models within their submissions, demonstrating how accountability would be maintained and high quality services delivered.
If bidders were successful in securing more than one Lot, they were expected to optimise the use of non delivery resources such as management, administration, and support functions. This approach was intended to minimise overheads, avoid unnecessary duplication, and ensure efficiencies were realised across all awarded Lots.
This procurement covered seven Lots across the South West, 6 of which have been awarded in a previous notice. This notice covers the award of Lot 4 for Devon.
The contract duration is three years (36 months), with an optional extension of 12 months. Services were scheduled to commence on 1 September 2026, with the initial three year period ending on 31 August 2029.
