NHS South East London Clinical Commissioning Group (SEL CCG) (Bromley) currently commissions two Urgent Treatment Centres (UTCs) located at the Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH) and Beckenham Beacon Hospital. This contract is due to expire on 30th September 2022 and the CCG’s current intention is to launch a procurement in early 2022 to re-procure a single contract across both sites with a service start date of 1st October 2022. It is expected that the contract will be procured with a term of no less than 5 years and based on the NHS Standard Contract terms and conditions. The indicative value for the total proposed contract is £6,500,000 per annum (£32,500,000 over 5 years), excluding VAT. Contract value figures and contract durations quoted in this prior information notice (PIN) are indicative only and are subject to amendment by the CCG. Interested providers may wish to register their interest in the procurement via the London Shared Services (LSS) tender portal so as to ensure that as and when further information is shared by the CCG they receive a notification of any new information published on the tender portal related to this future procurement. Interested parties can register an account on the ProContract portal (link below) and, once registered and logged in, you can express an interest in the project and access the “Market Engagement” page.There is currently no further information published on the portal however the CCG envisages beginning to share more information in January 2022 via the portal. Potential responders will not be prejudiced in any future procurement processes by either responding or not responding to this early PIN. A further PIN will be published in January 2022 including a request for market feedback on the proposed service and aspects of the procurement where responses and expressions of interests will be required. Further details will be provided within this subsequent PIN in January 2022.This is a potential opportunity from the government, and the pipeline gives advance notice of an opportunity that might be offered by the public sector in the future – allowing potential suppliers to plan accordingly.
