        "description": "***This advert is for a market engagement survey only*** NHS Arden and Greater East Midlands CSU, acting on behalf of West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) are looking to put in place Individual Placement Services across Birmingham, Solihull and Coventry to complement the existing services in the Black Country. Over the last 3 years, the West Midlands Combined Authority have been working with NHS England, the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP), and the Department of Health (DH) to trial Individual Placement and Support (IPS) services in primary and community care settings. The aim was to test if this model can deliver a transformational improvement in employment, health, and wellbeing outcomes for people out of work with a self-defined long-term health condition or disability. The trial has successfully been delivered and a national evaluation is due to be published In the Spring of 2022. IPS services continue to run within the Black Country footprint, however the WMCA are now looking to expand services into Birmingham and Solihull and Coventry. There will also be a focus on exploring the effectiveness of IPS interventions for specific vulnerable groups including those who are at risk of becoming homeless, have autism or ADHD or are subject to Community Treatment Sentence Requirement. It is anticipated that the service will run from April 2021 until March 2022 with the possibility of further contract extensions of up to 3 years in 12-month increments. In order to understand market appetite for the provision of such a service, the Commissioner is looking for interested providers to give feedback on the proposed service by completing a survey. Interested providers can find further information and the survey by accessing the associated material which can be located on the Arden & Greater East Midlands CSU's e-tendering solution, EU Supply. In order to access this, providers are advised to make use of the link which can be found below. Providers should ensure that they provide any feedback they may have via the EU Supply portal by 8th January 2021 at 1700hrs.",
