Description

THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION
ONLINE MARKET ENGAGEMENT EVENT

Leicester City Council is considering commissioning a Participation Service, which will help us to ensure that people drawing on the support of our Adult Social Care services are equal partners and that their lived experiences are a primary consideration when we are planning and designing the support and services that are needed.

It is anticipated that tenders for the Participation Service will be published in October 2022, with the new contract ready to start with effect from 01/07/2023.

As part of the commissioning process for the Participation Service, the commissioners of this service are keen to hold an Online Market Engagement Event.

The Online Market Engagement Event is being held on Friday 5th August commencing at 10.00 a.m. and is anticipated to end at 11.30 a.m. The event will be conducted online via Microsoft Teams.

The event will give potential providers and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and feed in their views about the potential service. The commissioners will use the information to appraise options and further develop the specification.

For further details regarding this proposed service and the areas commissioners would like to ask your views on during the event, please access the Project Overview document by copying and pasting the following web link into your web browser and viewing the attachments section:

To book a place at this event, please complete the online booking form by no later than 2.00 p.m. on Thursday 4th August 2022 by copying and pasting the following web link into your web browser:

https://forms.office.com/r/SP32AwVtcv

A maximum of TWO places per organisation is available. Places are limited and will therefore be allocated on a first response basis. Upon receipt of your booking form, if places are still available, your organisation's attendees for the event listed in your completed booking form will receive joining instructions and the link to the meeting which will be provided via their email addresses provided on your completed form.

This Market Engagement process does not constitute a formal tender or other competitive bidding process and will not result in the letting of a Contract.

If you are unfamiliar with joining a Microsoft Teams meeting, guidance to assist will be provided to the meeting attendees via their email addresses provided on your completed booking form.

If once your place at the event has been confirmed but you are then unable to attend, please let the Authority know via email to procurement-asc@leicester.gov.uk so that your place can be allocated to somebody else on the reserve list.
