Are you seeking funding for an idea?
Requests for funding which occur outside of MPHN’s formal commissioning approaches to market are known as unsolicited proposals.
MPHN’s response to unsolicited proposals will be in line with our commissioning principles outlined in our Commissioning Framework consistent our organisational vision, values and strategic goals, along with our commitment to supporting vulnerable populations. For a proposal to be considered it must align with the needs identified in our Needs Assessment and propose innovative value for money solutions.
An unsolicited proposal should show innovation and their unique placement to deliver the activity and achieve outcomes, justifying MPHN’s departure from a competitive tender processes. If a proposal can readily be delivered by competitors then it will not be sufficient to be considered as an unsolicited proposal.
All unsolicited proposals will be assessed against an agreed assessment criteria and in accordance with the defined procedure. Any allocations will depend on availability of funding in the financial year, commissioning priorities and available capacity. All funding provided is dependent on continued funding from the Australian Government Department of Health.
We are currently revising our Unsolicited Proposal Policy and processes. We expect a new application form will be ready for use by the end April 2024. In the meantime, if you have any enquiries regarding Unsolicited Proposals, please contact Donna Jeffery, MPHN Procurement Lead, on 02 6923 3125 or donna.jeffery@mphn.org.au.
