Notice Title

ASC0270 - Mental Health Wellbeing & Recovery Support Service

Notice Description

Leicester City Council is seeking to co-commission the Mental Health Wellbeing and Recovery Support Service (MHWRSS) across Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR) which aims to build mental health wellbeing and recovery within local communities through the provision of advice, information, navigation and community recovery services. Current contracts for existing services end in September 2022 and it is anticipated that tenders for the MHWRSS arrangements will be sought in February 2022 to enable new contracts to begin from October 2022. As part of the commissioning process, the Council is undertaking soft market testing. This gives potential providers and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and feed in their views about the commissioning proposals. This process does not constitute a formal tender or other competitive bidding process and will not result in the letting of a Contract. The Council is using this process solely to test the market to gather information and ascertain the level of interest in this particular Service. There are therefore no formal criteria which will be used to judge your responses, and it is not our intention to provide any feedback. We would encourage you to respond if you feel this is something your organisation may have an interest in. If you would like to participate in this Soft Market Testing, then please copy and paste the following web link https://procontract.due-north.com/Advert?advertId=1f3e2f64-7d3c-ec11-810e-005056b64545&fromProjectDashboard=True and complete the Soft Market Testing questionnaire located in the attachments section and then email your completed questionnaire to the email address procurement-asc@leicester.gov.uk with the subject heading: ''Completed SMT Q - MHWRSS' before or by no later than 14:00 hours 24th November 2021. Please note this is not a call for competition. The Council welcomes the opportunity to engage with and appreciate your assistance in providing us with your views. However you should note that in any subsequent procurement exercise the Council will have to comply with our legal obligations and that neither the intention nor the purpose of this soft market testing exercise is to confer any advantage upon its participation in any future procurement process.
