## Summary

Lincolnshire County Council is seeking to enhance its Library of Information and Services (LIS) with a contract valued at £280,000 for services related to health and social work. This procurement is currently in the award stage, with a contract period starting from 9th July 2018 until 8th July 2021. The tender, which was published on 8th May 2018, includes two distinct Lots: Lot 1 focuses on creating a web-based information library and a directory of services, while Lot 2 provides remote support via phone, email, and live chat. Interested suppliers had until 15th June 2018 to submit their quotations through the Proactis ProContract portal.

This tender provides significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those offering customer-care services and web development for information systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as voluntary and community sector enterprises (VCSE), are encouraged to participate, as the contract details suggest inclusivity for suitable providers. Engaging in this procurement could allow businesses to expand their service offerings in the East Midlands region while contributing to community support initiatives.
