Community Rehabilitation Service

Description

Essex County Council is intending to utilise the competitive process under the Provider Selection Regime for the re-procurement of the Community Rehabilitation Service and is organising a market engagement event for interested providers. The market engagement event will take place from 3.30pm to 5.00pm via Microsoft Teams on 11 July 2024. The intention for the market engagement is to: • present the service aims and objectives; • explore how providers may be able to add social value to this contract; • gain insight into any challenges and/or lessons learned providers may be able to share; • an opportunity to ask questions and/or raise any other areas providers may see as relevant. The commissioning team will take suitable notes during the event to inform the commissioning of these decisions and will circulate the presentation slides, collate a Q&A document based on questions raised during the event with the providers. Providers will also have 48 hours after the event to send any additional questions they may have, and these will be recorded and shared afterwards. If you are interested in attending the virtual event, please register by emailing rizwan.sher@essex.gov.uk and provide the following details by no later than 12.00 pm, 9 July 2024: 1. Names and job titles of delegates 2. Organisation details (name and address) 3. Email addresses and telephone numbers for delegates Please note that registration at this event does not count as registration for the full procurement process, which will be separately advertised via the Find a Tender Service (FTS) website. We are aiming for this to be issued around the end of August 2024. The service will be commissioned via a competitive process conducted in line with the Provider Selection Regime for Healthcare Services 2023.
