## Summary

The Essex Independent Living Programme is currently in the planning stage, initiated by Essex County Council. This project aims to develop Independent Living and Extra Care schemes across Essex over the next seven years. A market engagement notice was published on 3rd April 2017, and an engagement event is scheduled for 25th April 2017 in Chelmsford. Interested parties must register by 19th April 2017 to attend the discussion, which will cover project scope, provider relationships, and future procurement plans. The primary industry category for this procurement is construction work for social services buildings.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in construction, social care services, and related sectors. Companies capable of privately financing and developing care facilities would be particularly well-suited to participate in the upcoming procurement exercises. The programme not only aims to address the housing needs of residents in Essex but also encourages local enterprises to engage in a collaborative environment, fostering growth and sustainability in the region's social care infrastructure.

## Notice

Subject to the completion of the Council's governance process, the Independent Living project aims to facilitate the building of a number of Independent Living / Extra Care schemes across Essex over the next 7 years. This will be achieved through the release of public land to providers to privately finance, develop, and build new schemes to serve the residents of Essex and those on the ECC social care register. Further details on the scope of the project and procurement processes will follow in due course. This EEN is to notify the market of a market engagement event to be held by ECC to discuss the Independent Living project being developed. This will include a presentation to the attendees, and will cover: scope of the project and the need in Essex; structure of the schemes and relationship between providers and ECC; upcoming procurement exercises and opportunities; future procurement plans; questions from providers and feedback on plans This event will be held on 25th April 2017 from 10am to 12pm (please note: details are subject to change but details will be finalised in advance) in Chelmsford (location TBC). To register your interest in attending this event please contact Nick Green on Nick.Green@essex.gov.uk with details of your organisation, including email address, telephone number and the point of contact for dialogue related to this notice. Expressions of interest must be received not later than Wednesday 19th April 2017.
