This PIN is intended to inform the market that the contracting authorities are proposing to appoint Providers to deliver a regulated Shared Lives service to older people residing in the 5 HSCNI Trust areas. PaLS therefore wish to carry out pre tender engagement with interested Providers.. This Tender is governed by the Public Contract Regulations 2015. The service being tendered is classified as a 'Social and other specific service' therefore the Light Touch Regime (regulations 74-77) applies.. This pre-tender engagement will take the form of a paper and questionnaire for providers to respond to. The purpose of this engagement is to inform the market that Health and Social Care Northern Ireland (HSCNI) are planning to procure the provision of a Shared Lives service in Northern Ireland, engage the market, receive feedback from Providers by outlining HSCNIs proposed requirements for the service and gauge the level of interest in the provision of the Service.. The pre tender engagement paper and questionnaire will be available on eTendersNI (https://etendersni.gov.uk) under resource ID 3325671. Potential providers are asked to submit their responses to the questionnaire on eTendersNI by 15:00 on 19th February 2021. Any interest shown in the pre-tender engagement does not constitute a commitment to participate in a procurement exercise. Failure to show interest does not restrict providers from participating in any future procurement exercise. Please note this tender will be open to organisations from all sectors.",
