Impressing public sector buyers can be tough so getting two organisations to give the thumbs up is some feat.  NHS Nottingham CCG and Nottingham City Council jointly invited bids for services to help people live independently in the community.

We supported our clients to win two contracts:

• Care at home for disabled children or those with complex health needs
• Complex healthcare at home for adults

The quality score potential in this tender was 60% of the overall mark and we helped our clients create high scoring written proposals that addressed:

• Capability to meet the key aspects of the service specification
• Social procurement agenda of delivering employment and economic benefits in the City
• Case studies responding to challenging scenarios set by the buyers

Added to this we advised on detailed pricing models, which incorporated potential incentive payments, for achieving community outcomes.
