Primary Health Tasmania is inviting capable organisations to submit an expression of interest (EOI) to deliver the new Service Integrator initiative under the Supporting the primary care sector response to family, domestic and sexual violence pilot.

Service Integrators will be established to act as a conduit between primary care and specialist family, domestic and sexual services across Tasmania.

This is an important opportunity to contribute to the development of a comprehensive and effective approach to improve system integration and health system navigation for victim-survivors of family domestic and sexual violence.

About the EOI process

The EOI process is part of a two-stage tender process. In stage one we aim to:

  • understand the capabilities of the market.
  • gather insights on addressing family domestic violence, sexual violence, and child sexual abuse
  • finalise the service design of the Service Integrators initiative
  • shortlist applicants for stage two.

The EOI application period for stage one has now closed.

In stage two, shortlisted applicants will be required to respond to a further evaluation criterion, prepare a presentation, complete a budget and meet with the evaluation panel (where you may be required to respond to further questions).

An application must be submitted for stage one to be eligible for stage two.

Want to know more?

Read the 'Key documents' (Program Guidelines and Application Form).

Attend the non-mandatory online information session or view the briefing session report and presentation slides once they have been published online.

Post a question in the Q&A section below.

Email any commercially sensitive questions to procurement@primaryhealthtas.com.au (some questions and answers may be de-identified or generalised and posted in the Q&A section below).

    During this process, Primary Health Tasmania will rely on organisations to independently determine what, if any, collaboration is required. 

    The application form incorporates the ability to outline the collaboration even if not yet formalised. Refer to 6.3 in the EOI program guidelines regarding applicant structure and section 4 in the application form to explain composition of the collaboration.  

    Primary Health Tasmania expects to directly contract with a lead entity if there is a collaborative application.

    Travel costs related to the Service Integrators are considered direct service delivery costs – they do not form part of the overhead costs.

    Primary Health Tasmania strive to achieve value for money in relation to direct service costs. Typically, when reviewing the budget, we focus on direct service costs and review the service model and they should align. Overhead costs should not be reflected in direct service delivery. Further guidance about budget preparation will become part of the stage 2 tender process.
