## Summary

The Telford & Wrekin Council is seeking proposals for the "Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG) Service for Telford & Wrekin", aimed at providing essential support to the local community in building resilience and independence. This service falls under the health and social work services category, classified by the CPV code 85000000. The procurement process is currently in the Tender stage, with the tender period closing on 21st February 2019. The contract is set to commence on 1st October 2019 and will run until 30th September 2024, specifically addressing the needs of residents in the West Midlands region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses focused on delivering health and social services, particularly those that can adopt an asset-based approach to community support. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) are particularly well-suited to compete, as the council is keen to engage with providers that can foster strong local connections and empower individuals within their neighbourhoods. Engaging in this procurement process could facilitate business growth through collaboration with existing local service provision frameworks.

## Notice

This service will support the people of Telford through the provision of information, advice and guidance to live healthy and independent lives. It will work with individuals and communities to build resilience and connections creating networks of local support. Neighbourhoods will provide the conditions for 'good local conversations' that centre on an individual's strengths, taking an asset based approach, recognising that most people's needs are better met within the neighbourhoods in which they live and not through formal social services. Neighbourhood provision exists already within Telford and Wrekin, and this service is designed to work with them. This Service operates to support people to take responsibility for their own lives and to enable people to get the help and support they need at the right time and the right place.
