two.2.4) Description of the procurement

Is your organisation interested in partnering with the NHS to support and deliver services to patients?

Can your organisation offer innovation and quality to Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust (Guy’s and St Thomas’) through a managed service?

The way the NHS commissions/procures services with capital requirements is changing and Guy’s and St Thomas’ is keen to explore the clinical, operational and financial benefits of managed service agreements. Join us at this first-of-its-kind event where Guy’s and St Thomas’ is seeking to engage with industry partners as we begin to further explore the potential of partnership working to support and develop our clinical services.

Event objectives:
- To educate would-be industry partners on how MSAs are structured at Guy’s and St Thomas’ through content that outlines Guy’s and St Thomas’ redlines and highlights the benefits of MSAs for both industry and Guy’s and St Thomas’.
- For delegates to see the MSA-model brought to life through real life case studies.
- Delegates attending to be able to link Guy’s and St Thomas’ strategy and MSA models to their own commercial objectives.
- For delegates to be confident on the mechanisms for being alerted about MSA opportunities and how to respond.
- For the Guy’s and St Thomas’ commercial team to gain further insights of how industry views MSAs and gain an accurate sense of market readiness.
- To begin a legacy of formal NHS/Industry partnership networking.
Following the engagement event there will be valuable networking and 1-1 opportunities to discuss feedback about our managed services model in more detail and learn more about our priority therapy areas.

Please note: any contracts entered into will be subject to the appropriate formal tendering process and attendance at this event does not guarantee any contract agreement with Guy’s and St Thomas’.

Target Audience
We are seeking to engage with key industry partners who embrace collaborative and partnership working, are looking to explore new opportunities for working with Guy's and St Thomas' and keen to play a role in delivering services/supporting service delivery under a managed service agreement.

Of particular interest are (but invites are not limited to) the following industries/services: theatres, including robotics, cath labs, hard and soft facilities management services, interventional radiology, radiopharmacy and diagnostics (including CT, MRI, ultrasound, x-ray).

Places will be limited and therefore we may prioritise attendance to those industries that align with our current priorities. However, a waiting list will be maintained and future similar events planned if there is sufficient appetite.

Pre-requisites for registration
Industry partners who are, or who are interested in delivering services, equipment and/or facilities management to healthcare organisations.
We would like to engage with key individuals with appropriate autonomy and authority within their organisation to understand/influence how their organisational strategy would align with Guy’s and St Thomas’ MSA objectives. We seek decision makers of sufficient seniority that they will be able to provide valuable feedback on our vision/strategy.

Places will be limited to a maximum of two per organisation
