This is a two stage process under the procurement act 2023, following the competitive flexible procedure. Stage 1 (Pass/Fail Questions) will determine if bidders will move on to stage 2 (Invitation to tender). The consideration of a strategic partner to help embed QI as a business strategy has been emphasised since 2023, as it is still currently an add-on in business-as-usual work at the Trust. We are now seeking to appoint a strategic QI and quality management system partner, to support the development and implementation of a “NELFT method” for improvement and transformation of our quality management system. This will help us where quality becomes our business strategy to meet the needs of our population and the complex challenges we will face as an organisation now and in the future.
