Description

Bristol City Council intends to launch a procurement opportunity to procure Substance misuse treatment services with the intention of having new services in place by October 2017.
Currently Substance misuse treatment services include a wide range of treatment and support under the Recovery Orientated Alcohol and Drugs Service (ROADS) banner. This treatment system has been commissioned by Bristol City Council's Substance Misuse Team (SMT) according to the current National Drug Strategy (2010) and other key guidance from Public Health England (e.g. NICE Guidelines etc.).
At this stage Bristol City Council does not have a detailed commissioning strategy and service specifications to share with potential providers and it reserves the right to breakdown the services in to smaller lots.
Further information about the current Substance misuse service and draft Needs Assessment is available on
https://www.bristol.gov.uk/social-care-health/drug-and-alcohol-misuse-treatment.
At present Bristol City Council is seeking information from Providers on the potential interest and capability of the market to deliver Substance misuse treatment services. Please visit https://www.bristol.gov.uk/socialcare-
health/drug-and-alcohol-misuse-treatment to access the draft Needs Assessment where you can provide feedback by Monday 25th July 2016.
