The tender has now closed 
The procurement was abandoned on 23 June 2023 
The Contracting Authorities recently received unprecedented news that NHS England funding has been received within the financial year 2023/24 to secure premises for Stage 3 of the fully Integrated Urgent Care Treatment and Out of Hours service model.  This is 3 years ahead of schedule and the Contracting Authority feels it is therefore appropriate to abandon the current procurement process and consider the future route to procure for the fully integrated service model.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Contracting Authority declares this NECS463 Integrated GP Out of Hours Service procurement as now abandoned and will no longer be proceeding.
The Contracting Authorities would like to take this opportunity to thank all participants for their inputs and trust that this will not deter interest in future opportunities.
