## Description
This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to inform the market of NHS Kent and Medway ICB's (the Commissioner's), intention to recommission Environmental Control Equipment for Patients with Complex Disability (All Ages) in the South East region. The service is expected to cover Kent and Medway, South East London and Sussex.
The Commissioner would like to understand the level of provider interest in delivering the service and invites expressions of interest (EOI) from suitably qualified and experienced providers to provide the service. The ICB areas involved are:
1.	NHS Kent and Medway ICB
2.	NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB
3.	NHS South East London ICB
The number of active clients (2025/26) are as follows:
NHS Kent and Medway ICB = 191
NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB (East Sussex) = 92
NHS Surrey and Sussex ICB (Brighton) = 34
NHS South East London ICB = 160
TOTAL = 477
Service specification link: https://www.england.nhs.uk/publication/environmental-control-equipment-for-patients-with-complex-disability-all-ages/
The contract term is anticipated to be for an initial period of 5 years with the option to extend for up to 4 years (4 x 12 month extensions).
The annual contract value is currently expected to be £1,633,031 per annum (based on 2025/26 values). All figures are subject to change.
Providers who are interested in delivering these services are asked to express their interest and complete the Microsoft (MS) Form questionnaire using the link below:
https://forms.office.com/e/aRHp52qLeW
Please ensure that you submit a completed MS Forms questionnaire by no later than 17:00 on Friday 31st July 2026.
Please note, this exercise will test provider preference for either a whole‑region delivery or smaller ICB‑level lots. The contracting and commissioning strategy is yet to be finalised and this market engagement is an opportunity for potential providers to help inform the contracting and commissioning strategy.
This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner. SCW is currently subject to restructuring, and the management of this exercise may therefore move to a successor at some point during the process. Participants will be informed of any such change, and any administrative changes because of it.
