Summary of the contracting process

Thurrock Council is initiating a tender process for "Day Opportunities" to enhance the commissioning of services for individuals with Learning Disabilities and Autism. This procurement falls under the health and social work services category, with a deadline for tender submissions set for 22nd December 2017. The services are required to be delivered in the East of England, and the selected providers will be contracted from 1st January 2018 until 31st December 2022. Interested parties are encouraged to engage in discussions regarding future plans at a soft market event before the formal tender process begins later this year.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses experienced in delivering support services to individuals with Learning Disabilities and Autism, particularly those capable of managing Direct Payments and Individual Service Funds. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are encouraged to compete, as their agility and community focus can align well with the council's objectives in service delivery. Participating in this process can therefore facilitate business growth while contributing meaningfully to the support network for vulnerable populations in Thurrock.
