Mental Health Clinical Outcome Review Programme

Applications closing date: 15 Sep 2023 12:00

The Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP) is seeking to commission an
organisation that will support the delivery of the Mental Health Clinical Outcome Review
Programme (MH CORP).

The programme will initially be delivered for NHS-funded care in England, Wales, Scotland,
Northern Ireland, Jersey and Isle of Man but may later extend to include Guernsey and other
Devolved Nations/ Crown Dependencies.

The total contract value is £1,952,640 excluding VAT for the duration of three years with
potential to extend the contract for up to two additional years at a value of £650,880 per
year.

The aspirational intent including the core 3 year value, extension value and all other
aspirational intent as defined in section 12 of the specification of this ITT has a potential
ceiling value of up to £7,397,951.28.

It is anticipated that the new service will commence in April 2024. This procurement is for
clinical services which are part of the ‘Public Contract Regulations (PCR2015)’ for the
purpose of the Regulations. The commissioner is not voluntarily following any other part of
the Regulations. The process will be similar to an Open Procedure where the Regulations
apply and so reserves the right to depart from that procedure at any point. The procedure
that the Commissioner is following is set out in the Invitation to Tender.
