II.1.4) Short description
NHSE is appointing a Programme Delivery Partner (PDP) for the New Hospital Programme (NHP) to be the long-term partner to the programme.<br/><br/>The PDP will provide expertise in scheme design, programme and project management expertise to allow NHP to develop a more standardised approach to design and delivery, increase participation from suppliers in the health infrastructure market, and unlock efficiencies and accelerate delivery to allow NHSE to meet the Government’s commitment to deliver the biggest hospital building programme in a generation. NHP’s ambition is to transform operations across digital, clinical, and workforce workstreams, to identify requirements and translate these into national standards and policies, thereby improving benefits for patients and staff. The PDP interfaces with and supports transformation workstreams, for example supporting the transfer of learning from more advanced Trusts to later ones. The PDP will work with NHSE and NHS Trusts to ensure that the programmatic benefits are increasingly embedded in hospital design and delivery as these benefits are developed.

II.2.11) Information about options
Options:
Yes
Description of options:
1. Optional Scope - NHSE reserves the right to use the Contract for wider NHSE requirements beyond NHP (NHSE Ancillary Services) and is also procuring the Contract for and on behalf of DHSC and SCCL in respect of Optional Scope. Further information on Optional Scope is included in the accompanying procurement documents. See ITC paragraph 2.1.5 (Optional Scope) and ITC Appendix A1: Outline Scope.<br/>2. Permitted modification - Digital Delivery – NHSE intends to procure a digital delivery partner separately from the PDP. Due to the similar nature of the services and ability for greater integration and efficiencies, NHSE reserves the right (by way of agreement with the PDP) to novate digital delivery services to the PDP. Digital delivery may therefore form part of the PDP Scope of Services during the Contract duration. Accordingly, the anticipated scope of the digital delivery services has been included in this Contract Notice and accompanying procurement documents (including ITC Appendix A1: Outline Scope).<br/>3. Transfer to replacement contracting authority – NHSE reserves the right to transfer the Contract in whole or in part to another public body (or bodies) that during the term of the Contract assume NHSE’s delivery obligations (in whole or in part) to deliver the New Hospital Programme or new NHS hospitals through another iteration of the New Hospital Programme.<br/>4. Trust support - the PDP will provide services to support NHSE and NHS Trusts to ensure that the programmatic benefits are increasingly embedded in hospital design and delivery as these benefits are developed. The PDP Services will also enable NHSE to support the Trusts in the delivery of schemes.<br/>5. Extension to duration of the Contract - NHSE reserves the right to extend the term of the Contract in whole or in part or any other combination for up to a further 4 years to no later than 31 March 2035.
