NHS England Health & Justice South East - Children and Young Person's Framework for Integrated Care Community Services (Thames Valley)

NHS England Health & Justice South East (NHSE) were seeking to re-commission the Children and Young Persons Framework for Integrated Care (FfIC) Community Service in the Thames valley area.

The service will facilitate integrated local trauma-informed systems that enable vulnerable children and young people with complex needs to thrive. The Service will be characterised by a close level of integration between the clinical delivery and youth work delivery.

The Commissioner intends to contract for the Services using the NHS Standard Contract. The contract term will be 4 years, with a total contract value of £6,788,000. The contract will commence on 1st April 2025.

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. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award. The publication of this notice marks the start of the standstill period. Representations by providers must be made to the relevant authority by midnight on 21st January 2025. This contract has not yet formally been awarded; this notice serves as an intention to award a contract under the competitive process of the PSR.

This exercise is being carried out by NHS South, Central and West Commissioning Support Unit (SCW) on behalf of the Commissioner.
