Technical requirements: Innovation Partnership — A Stroke for the Future Health Service Systems for Ensuring Stroke Patients Quality, Continuity and Intensity in Improvements after Treatment in an Institution.
The contracting authority would like tenders for a system/systems that can contribute to stroke patients who are discharged from hospital or a treatment institution continuing to have positive development in their rehabilitation after they go back home. Further details on the background for the need and the aim of the procurement are in Annex 1 “The Contracting Authority's Needs and Requirements”.
In this procurement, “system” means a proposal or idea for a service, a product, an ICT system, or a combination of these.
Sykehusinnkjøp HF is making the procurement on behalf of the contracting authorities. Sykehusinnkjøp will not be a party in the contract.
The contracting authorities who will implement the contract for an innovation partnership are Oslo University Hospital, c/o the Centre for Future Health (hereafter called C3), Sunnaas Hospital and Oslo Municipality. C3 will make payments of remuneration from Innovasjon Norge. Sunnaas Hospital and Oslo Municipality will develop the system together with the partner(s), and will have an option to procure the developed system. The distribution of responsibility between these 3 parties will be further clarified before the contract is signed.
The aim of the procurement is to enter into a contract for an innovation partnership with one or several partners for a system(s) that increases a stroke patient's ability and opportunity to maintain quality, intensity and continuity in their rehabilitation after they go back home from a stay in hospital or an institution.
The gain that we would like to achieve through the system is that persons who live with sequelae after a stroke experience independence and self-achievement in their lives, and that the need for help from relatives and services from public authorities is reduced.
The procurement will be made in accordance with the innovative partnership procedure. An innovation partnership will allow product and service development in a cooperation process between the buyer and developer/supplier. The rules require that the system requested in an innovation partnership is not already available in the market. It must be a new system that is developed through the procurement, or an existing system that is adapted to a new area of use. Parts of the system can be based on existing systems that already exist in the market. In an innovation partnership, the development phase and the later procurement are combined in 1 and the same contract. The contract allows the Contracting Authority to have an option to procure the developed system.
The consequential entities that will have an option to procure the developed system(s) are listed in the tender documentation.
Tenderers must be a legally established company. The company registration certificate must be enclosed.
This bullet point will be subject to assessment of turnover, annual results, as well as key figures in the balance sheet.
