Perinatal (Infant and Maternal) Mental Health Workforce Competency Training

This Request for Proposal (RFP) is an invitation to suitably qualified Respondents to submit a proposal for perinatal (Infant and Maternal) mental health training competency programme/s or modules aimed at the below workforce groups.

Priority focus for the training is delivery to:
- mental health workforce working with adults
- mental health workforce working in infant child and youth services

But also of relevance to:
- broader health workforce working with pregnant women and infants e.g. midwives, WCTO nurses, practice nurses, GPs, pediatric clinicians
- broader workforce in health and social sector e.g. whānau ora workers, social services etc

Ideally our preference is to procure services where some materials already exist, and/or delivery processes exist but could be adapted. However we are open to proposals where all materials will need to be developed providing the respondent can demonstrate their ability to develop these materials within a maximum of 12 weeks from contract signing and which can be done within the specified budget.

This RFP is an open competitive tender process. It is a single procurement process.
