For certain sites, the provider will be required to operate from locations specified by the commissioner, while others will be subject to assessment and confirmation. • Provide a flexible and appropriate service that is responsive to changes in demand, patient care and organisational requirements. • Provide a quality and clinically safe reporting service supported by the necessary trained, experienced and well-established workforce. • Deliver an integrated service that works seamlessly with GPs, the pathology provider, and wider health services, while developing and maintaining strong local relationships through collaboration with primary care clinicians, services, and pathways. • Works in integrated approach with other interdependent services in the local system to develop and contribute to a sustainable neighbourhood diagnostics provision in Bromley. • Work with the pathology provider on planned transformation of GP blood test requesting technology and adapting to changing requirements of the service. • Provide safe, efficient, responsive, comprehensive and effective services which meet National guidelines, quality standards, accreditation requirements and statutory regulations. • Provide services that comply with information governance, data privacy and sharing agreements, facilities requirements and governance standards. The provider is expected to demonstrate a proven track record in delivering community phlebotomy services for a minimum of three years in South East London, with prior experience in meeting the key objectives and service requirements as outlined. -------- Approximate lifetime contract value: 2 years + 1 year extension subject to review at the end of 2 years, Contract Value: Value excluding VAT: £975,480 per annum with per-unit price (per bleed) of £7.39 for 132,000 units (bleeds).
