PRJ-1304-SEL ICB-Bromley All-Age Mental Health and Wellbeing and Adults Learning Disabilities Needs ...

NHS South East London ICB (the Commissioner) is currently preparing for the upcoming procurement (RFQ) of a short-term project for the All-Age Mental Health and Wellbeing and Adults Learning Disabilities Needs Assessment Service, for the London Borough of Bromley.

The Commissioner is seeking organisations with proven data analysis and project management expertise to apply to deliver this project.

The Needs Assessment will be a single project covering (i) three different population groups and (ii) one cross-cutting population group that will need to be an identified element in the other three areas, as set out below:
• Children and young people (0-18) in Bromley with mental health and wellbeing challenges.
• Adults (18+) in Bromley with mental health and wellbeing challenges, including older people with dementia.
• Adults (18+) with learning disabilities in Bromley.
• One key cross-cutting population group
• Children, young people and adults with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC).

The aim of the Needs Assessment is to produce a robust analysis of health and care needs across the three population groups in order to provide a recognised evidence-base covering:
• an assessment of health and social care needs for the three population groups in Bromley.
• an analysis of population health for the three population groups.
• an understanding of inequalities, service gaps and challenges in relation to the three population groups.
• a “deep dive” into a number of key strategic questions for the three population groups.
• a robust evidence base for local strategies and commissioning, notably the Bromley All-Age Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy and the Bromley Learning Disabilities Strategy.

The project deliverables for the Bromley Needs Assessment - All-Age Mental Health and Wellbeing and Adult Learning Disabilities are:
• a final written Needs Assessment in printed and electronic form for Bromley All-Age Mental Health and Wellbeing and Adult Learning Disabilities, covering all three population groups, including recommendations on areas for further consideration by commissioners and services, which is accepted by the commissioning lead as meeting the scope and requirements of the project.
• a summary presentation of the full Needs Assessment for commissioners.
• three tailored summary presentations of the final Needs Assessment for Bromley All-Age Mental Health and Wellbeing and Adult Learning Disabilities covering the three population groups, which the project will present at three key stakeholder boards (one for children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing, one for adult mental health and wellbeing and one for adults learning disabilities).
• at least a further two in-person and two “online” meetings to present the Needs Assessment.


An indicative specification is attached for the consideration of interested parties. Please note the specification is in draft form and may be subject to change following pre-market engagement.


The Commissioner anticipates potential award by the end of 2023.
There is no set timescale in which to complete this work although it is hoped that this project would be finished by early 2024 (or mid-2024 at the latest). There will be no further extension options.

The outline budget for this project is £60,000.
