The School of Health and Care (SHC) recruits between 1100 -1300 new health and social care students, to a suite of courses within each academic year, across several delivery sites including Coventry, London, and Scarborough. These students undertake a programme of study that leads to registration with a professional regulatory body including the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC for allied health professionals) and professional bodies such as the Chartered Society of Physiotherapists (CSP) and College of Occupational Therapists (COT).
As part of their course, there is a mandatory requirement for health and social care students to complete professional practice placements. This involves working in health, social care and private sector settings, voluntary and independent organisations. All students are therefore required to have an 'Occupational Health Assessment' to establish their fitness to undertake the University course and practice placements and must receive the various vaccinations in advance of commencing training in a practice setting.

This is a new service with a new provider. Additional information: Mental Health Innovations have been deemed the Most Suitable Provider for the Crisis Text Line Service as they were the only Supplier who registered their interest, responded to the essential service criteria questionnaire, answering yes to all key questions.

This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) intention to award notice. The awarding of this contract is subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.

Representations by providers must be made to the relevant authority by 26/03/2025. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award under the PSR.

Key criteria 1.  Quality and innovation - Weighting 40%
SHOUT is the UK’s only free, 24/7 text messaging support service, powered by mental health innovations The service is proven to reach new audiences who prefer to text and helps to take pressure off local crisis phone lines and face-to-face services. Using technology, Shout is accessible by communities across the length and breadth of the UK, reaching underserved populations who would not otherwise have a means of support.

In Shout’s five years of existence, they have scaled the service to take over 2,900,000 conversations with more than 900,000 children, young people and adults who have needed immediate mental health support. Conversations with Shout's clinically-led service are taken by mental health professionals, overseen by Clinical Supervisors and a 24/7 qualified safeguarding team. Commissioning Shout enables ICBs to deliver against NHSE advisory specifications for implementation of 24/7 crisis text message services, integrated with their local services, including 111 phone service provision.

Implementation support
• Ongoing support from Partnership Manager, including quarterly review meetings, check-in calls, email support, contract review meeting and responses within 24 hours.
• Invite to Community of Practice Events and Quarterly clinical webinar for ongoing professional development and sharing key insights

HOUT statistics show 39% of conversations are related to suicide, 123,000 safety plans were co-created with texters who were at imminent risk of suicide and 1-2% of texter who were at imminent risk are referred to emergency services.

55% of texters have no-one else to talk to and 38% have never spoken to anyone about their mental health before.

Only 19% of texters require an onwards signpost to another service, due to Shout clinicians being experts in de-escalating and safety planning over text. Of these 19%, this may include other national charities or local services provided to MHI through the South Yorkshire directory of services of up to 20 local services for the population.

Key criteria 4.  Improving Access, reducing health inequalities and facilitating choice - Weighting 10%

Key insights into existing usage:

Clinical Supervisors are registered with a professional body and trained to Level 3 safeguarding. Shout has developed an additional internal Digital Safeguarding training which is undertaken by all clinical staff biannually.  All Supervisors have access to our Safeguarding Panel composed of the Head of Safeguarding, a Senior Designated Safeguarding Lead (SDSL) and five Designated Safeguarding Leads for advice and guidance at any time.

Safeguarding forums aimed at continued professional development are held monthly. Clinical Supervisors can discuss themes emerging in text conversations in these forums and the Safeguarding Team holds drop-in sessions for discussion of specific issues.

Conversations are routinely reviewed by MHI Coaches, Clinical Quality Panel and Safeguarding Panels.  Coaches are permanent Shout staff who provide support and advice to volunteers and clinicians when they are off the platform. Their role is to be a readily available point of contact for all volunteers and staff to ensure well-being and consistent feedback and improvement across the organisation.

MHI will continue to work on Translation services to be able to work with other languages. This will require 100% confidence in an online translation service. Currently, should someone text in with a different language we will translate that the Shout service is English speaking only and direct them to our website hosting multiple resources in multiple languages

Shout is a free text service, irrelevant of what network or phone you have, whether it is a contract phone or pay as you go the service is free to text. It doesn't require any data, Wi-Fi or registration to get access. It doesn't even need a smart phone.

According to USwitch, as of 2023, half of all nine-year-olds in the UK own a smartphone and almost all (98%) UK adults aged 16-24 now have a smartphone which will allow access to the Crisis Text Service.

Key criteria 5.  Social Value - Weighting 10%

MHI are an organisation who are united behind their values and shared objectives, and:
• Encourage active contribution from staff to a supportive, positive and progressive organisational culture.
• Promote staff and volunteer wellbeing and facilitate continued growth in expertise, knowledge and professionalism.
• Put our service users at the heart of everything we do, including increased engagement of service users in the development and evaluation of
our work.

MHI have a Diversity and Inclusion statement and are committed to equal opportunities for all.
‘Our goal is to be a diverse and inclusive organisation that is representative of the UK population at all levels, including our Board of Trustees, our staff, our volunteers and our beneficiaries’. We believe that diversity among our staff will lead us to have a creative and empowered team.

description: Tender notice on Find a Tender

features:
This procurement will follow a simple two stage competitive flexible procedure, without negotiation or dialogue. The Contracting Authority will carry out a PSQ as the first stage to shortlist a number of suppliers, evaluating suppliers on a combination of Qualification & Technical questions & an assessment of excludable suppliers, connected persons or sub-contractors in accordance with PA 2023. This is available on the DSP & will be used to down-select from an anticipated maximum of 6 suppliers to invite to tender.
At the second stage, the Contracting Authority will issue an ITT to the shortlisted suppliers & invite them to submit tenders. If at the first stage it's established that only ONE supplier is shortlisted, letters will be issued to inform unsuccessful suppliers the procurement under the competitive flexible procedure would be cancelled & would switch to Direct Award.
Once the ITT has been published to those successful at PSQ, a clarification process will be used during the tender period to allow for suppliers to ask the Authority questions. A summary of the award criteria is in this notice and will be explained in the Tender Evaluation Strategy, which will be published in the DSP, with the ITT. The Authority reserves the right to refine the award criteria before and - where negotiation/final tenders are used - during the Tender period in accordance with section 24 of the Procurement Act 2023. This may include revision to the weightings of the sub-criteria. During this stage there will be no negotiation or dialogue with any shortlisted suppliers.

description:
A key part of the new Government's mission to kick-start growth is a commitment to building an inclusive and thriving labour market where everyone has the opportunity of good work, and the chance to get on at work. This will improve living standards and ensure funding for vital public services. It is also central to delivering on missions to break down the barriers to opportunity, and to improve the health of the nation.
As part of this mission, the Government has set a long-term ambition to achieve an 80% employment rate. This would place the UK among the highest performing countries in the world, with the equivalent of over two million more people in work.
The recently launched "Get Britain Working" White Paper outlines Government's strategy to invest £240m to support this ambition and help improve workplace health and keep people in work, including trials of combined public services for those out of work due to ill health. The strategy will bring fundamental reform that transforms relationships with local areas and ensures a strong foundation of partnership working to support people into good, sustainable work.
Connect to Work is the first major element of the Get Britain Working Strategy. It will take a collaborative, locally led approach to tackling 'Hidden Unemployment'. It will help connect local work, health and skills support. The funding provides a coherent, systematic and joined up approach to maximise the benefits available for individuals and local communities.
Connect to Work will support the wider development of locally planned systems to drive growth, working jointly with the Government. It will be an important strand in local plans to tackle inactivity and expand employment opportunity. By encouraging join up between health systems and employment support, Connect to Work will support those, primarily, currently outside the workforce and facing greater labour market disadvantages, to stay in work and get back into work. In turn, supporting the Government's ambition for a more inclusive economy, supporting local people to realise their potential and supporting local and national growth.

In turn, supporting the Government's ambition for a more inclusive economy, supporting local people to realise their potential and supporting local and national growth.
In England and Wales, Connect to Work funding will support around 100,000 disabled people with health conditions and those with complex barriers to get into employment and on in work.
Connect to Work is a voluntary programme, providing a specific form of support targeted at the right people at the right time, based on their individual circumstances. The programme will deliver the evidence-based Supported Employment model, 'place, train, and maintain', via two different types of interventions - Individual Placement and Support (IPS) and Local Supported Employment (LSE).
As the Accountable Body, the North East CA is responsible for the commissioning, implementation and management of the Connect to Work which will support 13,500 residents across the entirety of the programme.
An Invitation to Tender for the IPS intervention will be launched on Thursday 20 March 2025 and will be live for 30 days on the OPEN tendering system.
It is anticipated that delivery will start in Summer 2025.
The purpose of this online session is to provide a high-level overview of the Connect to Work commissioning process, specification, and timescales.

description: The DIO has an Estate Lens Model under development. This Model provides analysis of the demand and supply for the entire MOD estate

procurementMethod: direct

procurementMethodDetails: Direct award

procurementMethodRationale:
Repetition of Works or Services - for new works or services that repeat similar works or services performed by original supplier;
The case for the use of iDEA to complete the Estate Lens is based on their knowledge of 1) the existing Estate Lens construction linked to the wider MOD estate, 2) EMP Structures 3) Space Management), 4) MOD Building Performance Standards) the 5) availability of a consistent iDEA team. 6) The current supplier (iDEA) is providing critical infrastructure modelling to inform future Defence Reviews. 7) iDEA have built up a significant background knowledge and experience in programming infrastructure space management.8) iDEA has recently provided support to the DIO SDR delivery and DIO ISA Hd via development of the Estate lens. This is viewed as an ongoing requirement in the development of the Estate Lens model, its outputs and capability development.
The implications / challenges of switching to a new supplier at this time would include the risks of having to educate the new Suppliers of the previous four years of Estate Lens development / process and delivery, and establishing a new trust / working relationships between DIO Estate Lens Subject Matter Experts and the TLB Infrastructure leads.
A further risk would be trying to onboard a new Supplier just as a critical development of the Estate Lens being linked to both the DIO Cloud and EMP Application are about to be delivered. Based on professional judgement the DIO project team estimate a period of at least four months to onboard a new Supplier to carry forward the previous four years of developmen

The tender evaluation is divided into two stages - the Procurement Supplier Questionnaire and the Award Stage evaluation, as detailed below.
The standard PSQ Evaluation pertains to the evaluation of Parts 2, 3 & 4 (Qualification Questionnaire) of the tender document. Your self declaration element of this selection stage will only be checked for the winning supplier before award, unless it is necessary to check at an earlier stage to ensure the proper conduct of the procedure.
There are a number of project specific selection stage questions which are deemed relevant and proportionate to this contract. To ensure proper conduct of the procedure they will be assessed prior to the second stage evaluation for all bidders.
PLEASE NOTE:  With regards to the PSQ (Qualification Questionnaire) which relate to Parts 2, 3 and 4 it should be noted that you must achieve a PASS for each part of these evaluations in order for your tender to be compliant.   A FAIL for 1 or more of these questions will result in your tender submission being disqualified.
The Award Stage Evaluation will be based on the tender award criteria Most Advantageous Tender (MAT). This pertains to the Technical Questionnaire Section of the tender document in respect of the qualitative evaluation and the Commercial Questionnaire section of the tender document in respect of the pricing evaluation.
Technical (Quality) Evaluation
The maximum MAT score of 100 marks is broken down into 40 marks for the Technical (QUALITY) evaluation and 60 marks for the Commercial (Price)  evaluation. Tenderers are required to complete the Technical and Commercial Questionnaire sections of the tender document accordingly.
The 40 marks available for the Technical (Quality) evaluation is further broken down into a number of sub- criteria as follows:
7.5 marks - Ensuring the safety of and minimised disruption to other site users
7.5 marks - Programme
7.5 marks - Heritage related issues will be considered
7.5 marks - Key personnel and subcontractors
10 marks - Social Value
The score for each of the above technical criteria will be arrived at by applying the mechanism detailed below:
Scoring mechanism
Score 5 marks - where the evidence demonstrates that all of the tender requirements have been met.  Response provided is excellent.
Score 4 marks - where the evidence demonstrates that most of the tender requirements have been met. Response provided is good.
Score 3 marks - where the evidence demonstrates that some of the tender requirements have been met. Response provided is satisfactory.
Score 2 marks - where the evidence demonstrates clear gaps in meeting the tender requirements and is not comprehensive.  Response provided is below average.
Score 1 mark - where the evidence demonstrates a significant flaw in meeting the tender requirements.  Response provided is poor
Score 0 marks - where no information is provided for the relevant criteria.
Commercial evaluation
The 60 marks applicable to the Commercial (Price) evaluation will be calculated using the following formulae: Lowest total tender price divided by bidders total tender price (ie the bid under consideration) multiplied by 60 = marks awarded.
(For clarity the total commercial score will be to 2 decimal places)
Total Score
The Technical and Commercial scores will then be added together to give an overall score out of 100 marks to provide the overall ranking.
(For clarity, the total MAT score will be to 2 decimal places)
