Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU) Contract Type:
This notice is placed as a Prior Information Notice with regards to Translation and Interpretation Services in Dorset, Hampshire, Farnham and the Isle of Wight.
NHS England South East (the Commissioner) is wishing to hold a provider engagement event to determine the level of interest in the provision of Translation and Interpretation Services in these areas. Publication or response to this notice does not commit NHS England or respondents to award any contracts or to any future procurement.
The current route to market is through a mini competition / "call-off" process against the Crown Commercial Services (CCS) Framework RM1092 Language Services - Lot 1 'Managed Services', although this has not yet be finalised.
NHS England South East is seeking to commission Translation and Interpretation Services and would like to invite suitably qualified providers to attend a Market Awareness Event/Workshop which will be an opportunity for Providers to gain an understanding of the Commissioner's intentions for the service and how the procurement process will operate, as well as an opportunity to provide feedback on the challenges of the service/geography. The aim of the event is to provide Translation and Interpretation Providers with information that they may find helpful should they wish to submit a bid for the upcoming opportunity as well as the Commissioner gaining information from Providers on the service.
The contract duration is likely to be for 2 years, with an option to extend for a further 2 years, with a commencement date of 1st April 2020.
The aim is to appoint a single Provider to deliver a fully managed translation and interpretation service for Medical (GP), Dental, Optometry and Pharmacy services, across the whole geography.
There are two events scheduled:
• 26th July AM Dorchester
• 29th July PM Southampton
Further details including venue details will be provided to those who express interest.
