Description

The Framework duration is 4 years plus 4 years (4+4) subject to sustainability, suitability and value for money. Framework start date is 10th March 2025.

The Authority intends to open the Framework in whole or in part i.e. certain lot(s) twice per annum for Tenders from new organisations or to allow existing organisations to apply for additional Lot(s) (once launched) throughout its lifetime. The Authority reserves the right to amend the frequency of this timeline.

Please note that if you have previously submitted a bid and were successful, you are not required to submit a bid again in this round.

The Authority is inviting Tenders from suitably experienced and qualified organisations to join the Framework for Prevention and Support Services related to HIV, STIs and other BBVs.

The Framework has been split into five (5) lots as follows:

 Lot 1: Prevention and / or Support (Adults): to cover any area of work designed to help prevent residents from contracting HIV and/or other blood-borne viruses (BBVs).

 Lot 2: Support for Families (as per existing contracts).

 Lot 3: Connection to Care (support from screening & diagnosis through to accessing treatment).

 Lot 4: Specialist Support Services, e.g. support for PLWHIV based in Specialist HIV Treatment Services.

 Lot 5: Outreach and / or Communications for Blood-Borne Viruses (BBV) and / or STIs.

The Procurement is being run under the open procedure, which is a procedure, under which the framework is advertised and all interested organisations/consortium can submit a Tender.

There will be no form of exclusivity or volume guarantee granted by the Authority or Partner Organisations under the Framework.

Organisations may apply for award to more than one lot.

There are no restrictions to the number of organisations who can be awarded on to the Framework for any lot, so long as they meet the minimum criteria.

The Procurement is being procured by the Authority for the benefit of the Authority and the Partner Organisations. The host Borough is London Borough of Newham (LBN).

Organisations should note that there is no guarantee that all Partner Organisations will participate in the Framework Agreement at the commencement date (or at all). It is ultimately at the discretion of each individual Partner Organisation as to whether they will utilize the Framework Agreement.

Partner Organisations means all London Local Authorities and Health Partners. 'Health Partners' in this context refers to all organisations comprising Integrated Care Partnerships (ICPs), Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) and NHS Trusts (or future equivalent bodies in the event of re-structures).
