Market Engagement Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The NHS Midlands and Lancashire Commissioning Support Unit is currently in the planning stage of a procurement process titled "Market Engagement Event - Pathway 3 Services" aimed at health and social work services within Leicestershire County and Leicester City. A Market Engagement Event will be held on the morning of 23rd January 2018, with registrations required by 21st January 2018. Attendees will gain insights into service provision and the anticipated procurement process, making it essential for interested parties to secure their places early due to limited availability.

This procurement opportunity presents a significant avenue for business growth, particularly for organisations that offer health and social care services capable of providing assessments and reablement support to patients transitioning out of hospital settings. Businesses that can deliver Pathway 3 bed-based step-down services or related healthcare solutions will find this engagement beneficial, as it not only allows them to understand the commissioners' needs but also to potentially participate in the upcoming tender process, which will be conducted via proportional procurement methods suitable for the service's complexity and value.
