## Summary

The North East Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group (NELCCG), in collaboration with North East Lincolnshire Council, has conducted a public procurement process for "Voluntary and Community Sector Infrastructure Support". This initiative falls under the health and social work services category and is located in Grimsby, Yorkshire and the Humber. The procurement was initiated on 29th January 2020, with a contract period starting on 1st April 2020 and concluding on 31st March 2023, with potential extensions of up to two years. The open procurement method allows for broad participation, and the deadline for submitting completed tenders was 13th December 2019, at 12 noon.

This tender offers significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations (VCSEs) interested in providing infrastructure support services within the public health sector. Companies that possess experience in community engagement, service delivery, or support networks in the voluntary sector would be particularly well-suited to compete, as the contract aims to enhance existing provisions through innovative solutions and collaborative approaches.

## Notice

The North East Lincolnshire Clinical Commissioning Group (NELCCG) in conjunction with North East Lincolnshire Council (NELC) wishes to continue and evolve the existing provision for Voluntary and Community Sector Infrastructure Support in the borough of North East Lincolnshire. In consultation with local community based organisations and local providers NELCCG and NELC are looking to source a provider or consortium of providers to deliver infrastructure support to local voluntary and community sector organisations. The Contract will be initially set from 1st April 2020 till 31st March 2023 with the possibility of extending the term beyond the initial contracted duration by up to 2 [two] years with mutual agreement from the Provider and NELCCG. This would be dependent on successful achievement of contract outcomes and funding available to support the contract from commissioners. It is likely TUPE will apply to the transfer of staff undertaking the current service provision; however, it will be the responsibility of bidders to seek appropriate legal advice at the appropriate time. Interested parties wishing to participate in the Procurement should register and download a tender pack on NELCCG e-procurement system https://eprocurement.northeastlincolnshireccg.nhs.uk/ and submit an application using the supplied documentation.
