NHSE857 Market Engagement - Complex Trauma Related Mental Health Services for Victims of Sexual Abuse Yorkshire and Humber

North of England Commissioning Support is working for and on behalf of NHS England and NHS Improvement - Health and Justice (the Contracting Authority) and is managing a market engagement event for the provision of Complex Trauma Related Mental Health Services for Victims of Sexual Abuse for the Yorkshire and Humber regions. The Contracting Authority is issuing this Prior Information Notice (PIN) as a Briefing Notice for a Potential Provider Questionnaire and Event to engage with the market and to gather information in order to gain a better understanding of both the capacity and appetite of the market in delivering the proposed pathfinder hub services. NECS is utilising an electronic tendering portal (In-Tend) to manage this notice, the questionnaire and event, and as such interested individuals and organisations will need to register and submit an RSVP and response on the In-Tend portal. The In-Tend e-Tendering portal can be found at: https://in-tendhost.co.uk/nhsnecsu/aspx/Home Please follow the registration instructions (if you are not already registered) and look for the project NHSE857 Market Engagement – Complex Trauma Related Mental Health Services for Victims of Sexual Abuse. Please note that it is free to register on In-Tend, which can be accessed at any time of day as long as you have a working internet connection. It is important to note that this PIN/notice is not a call for competition and as such you will need to express your interest in any future tender opportunity once the contract notice is published in Find a Tender and on Contracts Finder (approximately June 2022). It should also be noted that this PIN/notice invites individuals and organisations to express an interest in this engagement event only, and it is NOT a pre-qualification questionnaire, and is NOT part of any pre-qualification or selection process. This PIN/event is intended as an awareness, communication, and information gathering engagement. An expression of interest is no indication of a commitment to participate in any future tender opportunity, nor does it infer any preferential or special status on those individuals and organisations who express an interest and/or attend the engagement event. The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 (as amended) may apply to a future procurement including the New Fair Deal non-statutory policy setting out how pensions issues are to be dealt with when staff are compulsorily transferred from the public sector to independent providers delivering public services. The event documentation will be accessible from 31 March 2022 and completed responses must be submitted by 21 April 2022. Additional information: Any future procurement for Complex Trauma Related Mental Health Services for Victims of Sexual Abuse for the Yorkshire and Humber regions will incorporate the UK Governments new Social Value Model.
