Prior Information Notice for the Development of a Citizens Jury for HI NENC

Description

The purpose of this PIN is to inform market operators of a potential future exercise to procure services supporting the development of a Citizens Jury. HI NENC wishes to engage a third-party organisation with a proven experience in delivering deliberative engagement, to support the organisation through a citizens jury process, with the aim of influencing policy making with regard to opioid prescriptions and pain management. Citizens' juries are a form of deliberative consultation that involves randomly selected citizens, often representing a diverse cross-section of society, coming together to discuss and deliberate on complex societal issues. Citizens' juries aim to provide a more inclusive and informed decision-making process by way of channelling input from informed public opinion. During the jury process participants have the opportunity to learn about the issue at hand, engage in thoughtful discussions, and consider the range of various stakeholder viewpoints. Ultimately, citizens' juries seek to produce well-informed and balanced recommendations or decisions that can influence policy-making, contributing to a more democratic and participatory system of integrated health and social care. HI NENC would like to invite potential providers of Citizen Jury services to apply to our Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) DN670401 as a supplier. You can do this by following this link: https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=7c5bf33c-52fa-ed11-8122-005056b64545 This opportunity will be developed as a further competition under Lot 2 of our DPS. You should therefore ensure you apply to Lot 2 to be able to bid to provide this service. You are also welcome to apply for any other Lots on our DPS that you feel are relevant to your organisation.
