The tender has now closed
The procurement was abandoned on 23 June 2023
The Contracting Authorities recently received unprecedented news that NHS England funding has been received within the financial year 2023/24 to secure premises for Stage 3 of the fully Integrated Urgent Care Treatment and Out of Hours service model. This is 3 years ahead of schedule and the Contracting Authority feels it is therefore appropriate to abandon the current procurement process and consider the future route to procure for the fully integrated service model.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Contracting Authority declares this NECS463 Integrated GP Out of Hours Service procurement as now abandoned and will no longer be proceeding.
The Contracting Authorities would like to take this opportunity to thank all participants for their inputs and trust that this will not deter interest in future opportunities.

Under the Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012, Contracting Authority must consider: (a) How, what is proposed to be procured might improve the economic, social, and environmental well-being of the area where it exercises its functions; and (b) How, in conducting the process of procurement, it might act with a view to securing that improvement. Accordingly, the subject matter of the contract has been scoped to take into account the priorities of the Contracting Authority relating to "economic, social, and environmental well-being". The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (as amended) by the "Collective Redundancies and Transfer of Undertaking (Protection of Employment) (Amendment) Regulation 2014" (TUPE) may apply to this contract. Bidders are advised to obtain their own legal advice and carry out due diligence including the New Fair Deal non-statutory policy setting out how pensions are to be dealt with when staff are compulsorily transferred from the public sector to independent providers delivering public services.
