Description
This Pre-Market Engagement (PME) process is to allow the market the opportunity to assist, recommend and input into the development of NHS LPP’s new Clinical Artificial Intelligence (CAI) Framework Agreement prior to the release of the Invitation to Tender (ITT). The CAI framework will compliantly allow for both innovation of products/solutions within the lifetime of the framework, as well as maintain a comprehensive direct award mechanism for all framework suppliers and contracting authorities, by utilising the Procurement Act 2023 (PA 2023) Section 49 – Open Frameworks. Open Frameworks facilitate growth, utilising this route to market enables NHS LPP’s ability to correspond to the increased demand for Artificial Intelligence (AI) enablement across both the NHS and social care. The framework will be split into three lots: Direct Clinical Support, Indirect Clinical Support and NHS England’s Federated Data Platform Solution Exchange (FDP SX). To participate, please search the live opportunities within the Atamis Health Family Portal, reference: C432964. https://atamis-1928.my.site.com/s/Welcome
