Overview

Auckland District Health Board (DHB) and Waitemata DHB are seeking to contract with a provider(s) (or partnership of providers) to deliver a suite of interventions that will support children, families and individual adults (including pregnant women) to make lifestyle changes that will have long-lasting benefits to their health and wellbeing. The RFP encompasses programmes across the continuum of early childhood, childhood and adult life. The services need to meet the needs of Maori and Pacific families and contribute to reducing inequalities. The services the DHBs are purchasing include:
1. Pre-school Active Families - for children who are identified as obese (greater than 98th percentile) at their Before School Check (B4SC) and their family. This is a new service and we are looking for innovative models that will reach families in group programmes and at home. The Pre-school Active Families service is contingent on funding becoming available from the Ministry of Health (MOH) on 1 July 2017. In the event of funding not becoming available the DHB may decide not to enter into an agreement with any Respondent for these services.
2. Green Prescription Active Families - a 6-12 month programme for inactive and/or overweight children and their families aged between 5 & 18 years
3. Green Prescription Adult - a 3 month service for adults who have a stable health condition or are at risk of ill health (physical and mental) due to physical inactivity.

The Active Families and Green Prescription Adult services are to be delivered to the MOH's national Green Prescription Active Families and Adult service specification. The specification has been customised by the DHBs to meet local requirements for the services.

The DHBs are seeking to contract with a provider for each DHB who will be responsible for the day-to-day delivery of the three services. The provider may be a single provider or submit a joint proposal on behalf of a partnership of providers that incorporates sub-contracting arrangements. Suppliers may propose to deliver the services in one or both DHBs. If suppliers are proposing to deliver services in both DHBs, a separate response needs to be submitted for each DHB.

The DHB is holding a supplier briefing session on Thursday 15 December, at 3pm, at the Waitemata DHB Board room 15 Shea Tce, Takapuna.

RFx Outcome

No Winner The Active Families and Green Prescription contract for Auckland DHB has been awarded to Sport Auckland, and for Waitemata DHB it has been awarded to Harbour Sport.
