DSHC: PCP: Children's Oral Health in England

Tender description

DHSC is committed to implementing a nationally recognised supervised toothbrushing scheme, in early years settings, and other reforms to improve the oral health of children in England. The purpose of this market engagement is to gauge interest from industry stakeholders with regards to the extent and type of support which they would be able to provide in line with the department's ambitions. The department's interest at this stage is in any potential partners that could provide physical support and assistance to help shape, inform and deliver our strategic ambition to improve the oral health in children and young people and reduce inequalities. This support and assistance could include but not be limited to the donation of goods or services alongside investment in supervised toothbrushing, development of initiatives or sponsor opportunities that help children and their families look after their oral health. There is no planned procurement activity relating to the publication of this Prior Information Notice (PIN). For avoidance of doubt this is not a call for competition nor a procurement and therefore it will have a monetary payment value of £0 attached for this engagement. The sole purpose is to seek interest from potential collaborative partners. You are invited to express your interest by submitting the questionnaire at the following link: https://forms.office.com/e/WP43GTVu9B The questionnaire will close for responses on 23rd September 2024 at 10am BST, responses after this time will not be accepted. Following this market consultation, there may be further engagement with suppliers who have expressed interest. For more information, please see the attached market engagement document that sets out further details and previews the questions included in the questionnaire.
