Abstract

NHS England South East (NHSE) (the Commissioner) is seeking to commission prime-provider led integrated healthcare services at Haslar Immigration Removal Centre (IRC). IRCs provide primary medical services to foreign nationals awaiting decisions on their asylum claims or awaiting deportation following a failed application.

Interested providers should have the capacity and capability to provide an outcome focused, integrated and patient centred primary healthcare service, equivalent to that available to the local community, for the IRC. The service will deliver a comprehensive range of services in-house, to include physical health, mental health, substance misuse and dental services; please refer to the service specifications(s) for a full list of services.

NHSE will hold a contract with the prime provider, who in turn can directly provide care and/or subcontract care to other specialist providers.

Haslar IRC is located in Gosport, Hampshire and is due to have a maximum operational capacity of 600 male residents. The initial operational capacity, over the first three years of the contract, is expected to be 130 residents. Post this term of the contract, there is expected to be an incremental increase in occupancy, as residents are placed there, ramping up to full operational capacity.

The Contract term is expected to be 7 years and 6 months (inclusive of the mobilisation period).

The maximum total contract value (exclusive of the mobilisation period) is £19,052,186.

This procurement is being carried out by NHS South, Central & West (SCW) on behalf of the commissioners. SCW is currently subject to restructuring, and the management of this procurement may therefore move to a successor at some point during the procurement process. Bidders will be informed of any such change, and any administrative changes because of it.

The initial operational capacity, over the first three years of the contract, is expected to be 130 residents.

The successful provider will be expected to actively participate in the on-site mobilisation of the integrated healthcare services immediately post the contract award (expected to be October 2026), in order to effectively commence service delivery once the first residents arrive (expected to be 1st May 2027).

Immediately post the contract award and subject to the subsequent signing of the contract, the Commissioner will commence payment to the provider to facilitate the mobilisation of services. This will continue until the service commencement date (expected to be 1st May 2027).

Prior to the service commencement date, the provider will be required to provide a financial statement of expenditure incurred during this period which will be reconciled against contract payments made.

The contract will end on 30th April 2034, meaning that the total contract term will be a maximum of 7 years and 6 months, inclusive of the mobilisation period of 6 months (based on contract award in October 2026). The service delivery period is expected to be 7 years, based on service commencement to residents on the 1st May 2027.

The maximum total contract value (exclusive of the mobilisation period) is £19,052,186. Payments during the mobilisation period will be made in addition to this contract value as per the Invitation to Tender (ITT) and subject to reconciliation against actual expenditure during this period.
