This is a voluntary ex ante transparency notice and is intended to provide notice of the Authority's intention to award a contract to deliver a Recovery College Services covering the population of Mid Essex, for a period of 36 months, from 1st April 2022 - 31st March 2025.
The aggregate contract value is forecasted at over the three-year term is £1,537,348.75 (excluding VAT)£1,844,818.50 (including VAT).
This notice is made by the Contracting Authority; NHS Mid Essex Clinical Commissioning Group (hereinafter referred to as "the Authority") in compliance with their local standing financial instructions (SFIs).
The Contracting Authority is yet to agree appropriate inflation and uplift for this contract for the period of 2022/23 and 2023/24. These will be dealt with as Contract Variations in accordance with the NHS Standard Contract Terms and Conditions. The Authority deems any such variations are not substantial or material changes, as they occur due to external causes beyond the Authority's control, including changes in contract value driven by changes in patient volume. The Authority will publish appropriate Notices accordingly to communicate any such future changes to the market, once final.
The Authority will observe a 10-day standstill from the date of publication of this VEAT, during which the Authority will not enter into any contractual arrangement.
The Recovery College will deliver comprehensive, peer-led education and training programmes within mental health services. They should be run like any other college, providing education as a route to Recovery, not as a form of therapy with courses are co-devised and co-delivered by people with lived experience of mental illness and by mental health professionals. (Perkins, Repper, Rinaldi and Brown) (ImROC).
This integrated model has been developed around a partnership approach at all levels of care including working with the newly formed Primary Care Networks, Secondary Care and Multi-Disciplinary Teams from the Local Authority, Community providers and Acute setting. The model has been set in train and will develop further over the next few years providing benefits to patients, the population and provide value for money (VfM) for the wider health economy.
There are significant mobilisation risks, particularly around workforce recruitment and training to secure competent staff at the appropriate levels of seniority to successfully deliver mental health integration in Mid Essex. The scale of work includes; working in partnership within the provider, PCN and Local Authority environment to deliver a capable workforce, recruiting staff to teams, supporting staff through training, ensuring the ability to mobilise the appropriate blend of clinical and administrative personnel to deliver the integrated model.
The proposed contractual term is for a period of 3 years, the services covered by the arrangement may change and expand as the integrated model develops.
The provider is a core alliance partner in Mid Essex and delivers Essex Wellbeing and Care Navigation Services, reducing risk of discontinuity of provision for the population of Mid Essex, through a seamless referral pathway that can be established at ease when mobilising the recovery college. The added benefit of the provider delivering this is also the core knowledge of Mid Essex, integrated working and holistic approach to existing services which will complement the delivery of the recovery college.
The seamless referral pathway has been set in train and will develop further over the next few years providing benefits to patients, the population and provide value for money (VfM) for the wider health economy. The CCG believes that the to support acceleration of plans to grow the substantive workforce and work differently and focus on the health, wellbeing can only be achieved through the continued relationships with its core alliance partners. Additional information: The Service to which this procurement relates fall within Schedule 3 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 as amended by as amended by The Public Procurement (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020, (the "Regulations").
