National Collaborative Framework for Adult MH LD & CAMHS Hospital Services

Description

NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership (NWSSP), in collaboration with the National Collaborative Commissioning Unit (NCCU) and on behalf of the Local Health Boards in Wales and the contracting authority for the Isle of Man, will be undertaking a refresh of the National Collaborative Framework Agreement for Adult Mental Health and Learning Disability Hospitals, as well as Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS).
This refresh presents an opportunity for interested providers to submit a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (PQQ) as part of the application process to join the Framework Agreement.
In addition, current Framework providers will have the opportunity to update their existing Lot service provisions, either by adding new services or amending existing ones, and to revise pricing (downwards only) where applicable.
The primary objectives of this refresh process are:
- Developing and establishing a framework consisting of suitably qualified, financially robust Service Providers to meet quality, service, and cost criteria.
- Ensuring consistent, high-quality Service provision and improved patient outcomes are achieved and maintained.
- Establishing key performance indicators, performance monitoring/outcome measures, access to management information, and provision of clear and consistent patient-level data.
- Applying patient-focused outcomes in accordance with the Mental Health (Wales) Measure 2010.
- Improving community safety and reduction of risk, ensuring absolute compliance with legal requirements applicable to patients/patient rights
- Establishing standard contract terms/conditions and a transparent pricing framework

In respect all selection and award criteria will be stated within the procurement documents available via etenderWales. The framework will remain open to allow periodic refreshes as detailed below.
6-month refresh for existing providers to amend pricing downwards and to allow new entrants to apply/existing providers the opportunity to add new units.
12-month refreshes for existing providers to amend pricing upwards and/or downwards and to allow new entrants to apply/existing providers the opportunity to add new units.

Complete Tender Coverage

Following Brexit, the new official Find a Tender system has been developed by UK Government to detail all public procurement contract opportunities expected to be over £122, 976 for Central Government or £189,330 for the remainder of the public sector e.g. NHS contracts, Local Authority contracts, Housing Association contracts. Publishing requirements for all of the public sector are in place to ensure transparency, fairness and open competition.

All UK public sector opportunities under these values, but over £10,000 for central government or over £25,000 for other public sector organisations, are still required to be published on Contracts Finder. Scotland, Wales and NI also have their own dedicated sites: Public Contracts Scotland, Sell2Wales, eSourcing NI and eTendersNI.

Complete Tenders have centralised and consolidated all of this information into a single, easy to use platform that is updated hourly with all new opportunities.
