Dementia United - Capturing the Lived Experience Request for Information (RFI)

NHS Shared Business Services, on behalf of the Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership (GMHSCP), is publishing this Request for Information (RFI) in order to seek information from providers which will be used to refine the service specification and procurement approach for the development and provision of a a system or tool which will enable Greater Manchester to capture and understand the lived experience of people living with dementia.

In order to understand whether the work being mobilised by Dementia United (DU) to improve the lived experience of people living with dementia is having a positive impact, GMHSCP are seeking information from interested providers to understand how a system or tool could be developed which will enable Greater Manchester to capture and understand the lived experience.

GMHSCP would like to hear views, suggestions and proposals from interested providers/partnerships of providers as part of this early market engagement exercise.

Further details of the requirements and the work undertaken to date are provided within the RFI document however whilst the current requirement is to develop a system or tool for the purpose of capturing and understanding the lived experience of people living with dementia, interested providers should note that any such tool or system may have a more generic application in the future, potentially leading to further opportunities for the provider.
