Options:
Yes
Description of options:
The contract is for an initial period of 3 years at a maximum total budget of 1 943 110 GBP excluding VAT and bids exceeding this limit may be rejected.
The contract is let initially to be delivered solely for England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. However, there is potential to extend the contract for a possible additional 2 years, subject to the availability of funding and an assessment by HQIP on the quality of the delivery of the programme. The Authority, in the future, may also offer the potential to vary the contract to additionally cover Jersey and Guernsey and/or other participants, and/or to include supporting NHS England’s suicide reduction programme, however there is no commitment by the Authority at this stage to do so. The potential value of the contract, should all these options be offered and taken up, would be circa a total of 3 548 000 GBP excluding VAT over the maximum 5 years contract duration.
