It is a requirement of this framework that Tenderers hold, or can commit to obtain prior to the commence of any subsequently awarded Framework, indicated below:
SPD Question 4B5 Insurances
Employers (Compulsory) Liability Insurance = 10 million GBP in respect of each claim without limit to the number of claims.  Tenderers may be required to provide their current Employers Liability Insurance certificate which should include name of the insurers, policy numbers, expiry date and limits for any one incident and annual aggregate caps and the excesses under the policies.
Public Liability Insurance = 5 million GBP in respect of each claim without limit to the number of claims.  Tenderers may be required to provide a copy of their current Public Liability Insurance certificate.
Documentation requested for the above insurances should include name of insurers, policy numbers, expiry date and limits of any one incident and annual aggregate caps and the excesses under the policies.
SPD Question 4B6 Financial Standing:
The Authority will access a Credit safe report for a Tenderers organisation and use the information contained within to assist with the assessment of the Tenderer’s economic and financial standing.  Tenders are asked to provide their company number within the ESPD to allow the Authority to access a Credit Safe Report.
Within such reports, the risk of business failure is expressed as a score of 30 or below (high risk of business failure). In the event that a company is determined to have a risk failure rating of 30 and below i.e. that the company is considered to have a high risk of business failure, the submission will not be considered further.
If you are successful in the award of this contract and your risk failure rating falls below 30 then the SPA reserve the right to remove you from this contract.  It is the Contractor’s responsibility to ensure that the information held by Credit Safe is accurate and up to date.
For the avoidance of doubt, the SPA will request a report from Credit Safe following the closing date for the receipt of the Tenders to ensure that the most up to date information is used. Where you are not registered on credit safe e.g. charitable organisations or new start companies/ Sole Traders with less than 3 years trading history, discretionary powers are available to the Director of Finance to consider abbreviated accounts along with bankers references etc.
Tenderers should be aware that any outstanding County Court Judgements will have a detrimental effect on the rating held by Credit Safe and it is your responsibility to ensure that the information held by Credit Safe is accurate and up to date - failure to do so will result in rejection of your submission.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This requirement is not applicable to Sole Traders/ Charities. Sole Traders/ Charities may be required to provide a bankers reference if successful.

performanceTerms:
The minimum financial requirement for the purposes of the current tender exercise is stated in the procurement documents. However in summary, Tenderers are required to have positive net assets / shareholder funds.
If a Tenderer fails to pass the financial assessment and is part of a larger group, provided that the group accounts are provided to ESPO on request and these pass the financial test, a parent company guarantee may be acceptable provided the Tenderer is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary within the group.
In addition, ESPO will use a Credit Reference Agency to provide information on Tenderers. Where the Credit Reference Agency assigns the Tenderer a score indicating higher than moderate financial risk, ESPO will give further consideration to the financial information and financial stability of the Tenderer.
If ESPO has any reasonable cause for concern in relation to this information that cannot be reasonably resolved then this could give rise to the tender being rejected.
This contract will contain a contract monitoring clause which will require suppliers to ensure that there is no material detrimental change in their financial standing and/or their credit rating (as determined by use of a Credit Reference Agency). Bi-annual review meetings will be held.

This is an Intended Approach Notice to award a contract using the Most Suitable Provider (MSP) Process. The Contracting Authority is seeking to satisfy its statutory duty to ensure service provision for the patient population of Mid and South Essex, whilst also reflecting the need for efficiencies and aligning the Service with the ICB’s strategic objectives and purposes to:
•	Improve the health of our population, by ensuring improved patient outcomes with a focus on quality of delivery across the ICS.
•	Ensure patients have an equitable offer across the board, while encouraging partnership working amongst organisations across the system.
•	Enhance productivity and value for money, by reducing administration time, duplication and overall management costs.
•	Promote a whole system approach and harmonise the current services.
•	By aligning the contracts, the ICB intends to identify better value for money and efficiencies in the utilising of resources from estates, digital infrastructures, workforce. As well as seeing data quality reporting improvement.
The proposed intention of approach (MSP) under PSR will be a flexible and bespoke ‘Structured Dialogue’, which is intended to not be competitive in nature. This approach is designed to establish an Alliance, via creation of a framework of governance within which the ICB and any interested providers of Primary Care Mental Health Services may come together over a defined period in two-way dialogue, to support the design of the ICBs Service Specification (“the Specification”), as well as identify a collaborative solution to such Specification. A Structured Dialogue enables the ICB and suitable, technically capable providers within the market to bring together their knowledge and expertise to develop solutions to deliver specific outcomes. The aim of this two-way dialogue is to allow for greater co-production, scrutiny, and commitment.
'Primary Care Mental Health Services' comprises of two services:
1. Physical Health Checks for Serious Mental Illness.
People living with SMI face one of the greatest health inequality gaps in England. The life expectancy for people with SMI is 15-20 years lower than the general population. This disparity in health outcomes is partly due to physical health needs being overlooked. The target for the GP practices and providers is to ensure that at least 75% of people on the GP SMI register have an annual physical health check and follow-up as required and are supported to access relevant interventions in relation to their physical health. Adults 18+ that meet criteria for eligibility for SMI health checks include a diagnosis of schizophrenia, bipolar affective disorders or other psychotic disorders and those prescribed lithium. The total aggregate contract value for this service will be approx. £3,273,209.
2. Mental Health Practitioners in PCNs.
The Mental Health Practitioner role for adults and older adults should support people with complex mental health needs that are not suitable for Talking Therapies provision. This aligns with the Long Term Plan commitment to design integrated mental health pathways across primary and secondary care for people with SMI. Adults 18+ with common and serious mental illness will be offered access to a wide range of services including, but not limited to, personalised and trauma-informed care, psychological therapies, physical health checks, medicine management and care services. The total aggregate contract value for this service will be approx. £48,788,932.
The proposed contract duration will be for a 3-year period, with the option to extend for a further 24 months, from the 01st April 2025. The total aggregate value for the two combined Primary Care Mental Health Services for the entire 5-year contract term is £52,062,141.00, as outlined in this FTS notice.
Any queries will be considered until the 09th September 2024 at 17:30hrs and emails should be sent to: cariad.burgess@attain.co.uk. Additional information: This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intended approach notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The intention is to award a contract using the MSP process. The award decision-makers is NHS MSE ICB.

This is a Corrigendum Notice to the Intended Approach Notice (Notice Number 2024/S 000-027176 | Notice Reference 2024-042505) which was published on the  23rd August 2024 by NHS Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board (NHS MSE ICB) herein referred to as 'the Authority'. Further detail can be found at Section 'VII.1.2)' of this notice.
The Authority has taken a decision to conclude this Most Suitable Provider process and to not award a contract to a Lead Provider on behalf of the incumbent providers (the Provider Collaborative).
The Authority will uphold its duty to secure suitable, technically capable Providers for the provision of Primary Care Mental Health Services (the Service) via a Competitive Process approach under the Provider Selection Regime 2023. The Authority will publish the appropriate Notices accordingly to communicate any future market engagement sessions and to communicate this competitive process opportunity to the market once final.
This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) notice that this provider selection process has been abandoned and a contract has not been awarded. This process has been abandoned under the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply.

This is an Intended Approach Notice to award a contract using the Most Suitable Provider Process for the Provision of Physical Health Checks for Serious Mental Illness (PHC SMI) and Mental Health Practitioner in Primary Care Networks (including Mental Health ARRS) herein referred to as "Primary Care Mental Health Services" (the Service) for NHS Mid and South Essex Integrated Care Board (NHS MSE ICB) (herein “The Contracting Authority”)
The Services were historically commissioned under separate contractual arrangements held by the individual Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs). The ICB was established on 1st April 2022, replacing the CCGs as the Contracting Authority. As a result, these contracts will now be subsumed into a single contract commissioned by the Contracting Authority.
The Services (PHC SMI and Mental Health Practitioner in Primary Care Networks (including MH ARRS) are currently delivered by three different providers through a multifaceted approach with differing offers across the system which is reflective of the previous CCG individual commissioning pathways, resulting in inequitable offers across the population of MSE. The Long-Term Plan and Joint Forward Plan (2023) states a commitment to increase the number of Physical Health Checks for SMI, as well as supporting for this group in Primary Care by breaking down the traditional primary/secondary mental health care pathways and closing gaps in provision.
The ICB has proposed a single system-wide offer, to amalgamate all of the contracts for these services into one potential contract to support integration, reduce fragmentation of services and reduce the number of contracts that NHS MSE ICB will need to manage going forward. This will enhance and improve outcomes to elicit patient safety and quality.
The Contracting Authority has worked with the three incumbent providers of these services and is of the view that this cohort of existing providers have the necessary experience, knowledge and skills to offer a collaborative provision via a lead provider model. Recognition that the services will need to do more with less funding and recognising the benefits and efficiencies of doing things once. Providers will also need to share risk and invest in the service provision through this collaborative partnership.
The Contracting Authority intends to award a single contract to suitably, technically capable provider. In order to award a contract, the most suitable provider must have demonstrably satisfied the minimum Basic Selection Criteria, including financial and economical standing, satisfying the Key Criteria assessment and the commercial envelope. The awarded provider will be expected to share the risk, resources, capacity and to work collaboratively with the ICB.
The Contracting Authority has considered which providers may be capable of providing the Service for the relevant patient population in Mid and South Essex. The Contracting Authority is of the view, considering providers that they understand are likely to have the ability to deliver services to the relevant population, and all relevant information available at this time that it is likely able to identify the most suitable provider. For absolute clarity, the Contracting Authority have worked with the incumbents and are of the view that these providers have the necessary experience, knowledge, and skills to offer a collaborative provision via a lead provider model.
Any queries will be considered until the 09th September 2024 at 17:30hrs, in line with best practice, under Provider Selection Regime. Emails should be sent to: cariad.burgess@attain.co.uk. However, please note that any interested providers will be required to satisfy the requirements as outlined above, including the sharing of risk, investment and collaboration through partnership in the service provision.
