A market engagement event is scheduled for Thursday, 1st April 2021, at 12 noon, to discuss the forthcoming tender opportunity, which will focus on health and social work services. Interested parties must confirm their attendance via email by the engagement end date of 31st March 2021, in order to receive the necessary Microsoft Teams meeting invite. This event will provide attendees with a chance to understand the service model and directly consult with council team members. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations that specialise in health and social work services. By participating in the market engagement event, businesses can gain insights that may enhance their prospects of winning the tender, making this an excellent opportunity for organisations capable of providing community builder services to engage with the council and potentially secure a contract. ## Notice Southend-on-Sea Borough Council will shortly be seeking tenders from suitably experienced providers for the provision of a Community Builder Service in Southend. As part of a wider engagement and consultation, we are inviting stakeholders to a virtual market engagement event held on MS Teams to inform the service model and service specification for the provision of this service. The event will open with a presentation to outline the service and talk through the upcoming tender opportunity; this will last no more than one hour. Following this presentation there will be an opportunity for your organisation to meet individually with Council team members to discuss the opportunity. This will be by invitation only, please confirm if you would like to meet individually and you will then be allocated a 10 minute time slot. Event details: Date: Thursday 1st April 2021 at 1pm. Venue: Online using Microsoft Teams Please e-mail procurementadvisors@southend.gov.uk to confirm your place, and if you require an individual meeting. A Teams meeting invite will then be sent to all attendees as well as a Teams meeting invite for the 10 minute time slot ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/76b867a9-1103-45e1-9277-2aecab310983 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 23 Mar 2021 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 31 Mar 2021 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | SOUTHEND-ON-SEA BOROUGH COUNCIL | | Locality | SOUTHEND-ON-SEA | | Post town | Southend-on-Sea | | Postcode | SS2 6EN | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLH East (England) | | ITL 2 | TLH3 Essex | | ITL 3 | TLH31 Southend-on-Sea | | Local authority | Southend-on-Sea | | Electoral ward | Victoria | | Westminster constituency | Southend East and Rochford | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 23 Mar 2021 at 16:13 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/76b867a9-1103-45e1-9277-2aecab310983 - 19 Mar 2021 at 14:17 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/76b867a9-1103-45e1-9277-2aecab310983 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/76b867a9-1103-45e1-9277-2aecab310983 23rd March 2021 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
