Until the new framework is in place the council will consider entering into spot contract arrangements with new providers subject to: * The provider satisfactorily completing the council's due diligence checks * Agreement on price * Demand for service The council will be inviting suitably qualified providers to attend a market engagement event which will offer an opportunity to: * discuss the Council's vision for the service * obtain provider feedback, which will help the council build its model for the service. This is an opportunity to have a conversation with the council when there is not the pressure of bidding for a contract. The event is being planned for week commencing 22nd March 2021. Due to the circumstances of Covid-19, the conversation is designed to be virtual, and providers will be invited to participate in a 1.5 hour conversation.
