This procurement is currently in the planning stage, with the anticipated contract period running from 1st April 2020 to 1st March 2023. The procurement process is being initiated through a prior information notice (PIN) published on 24th June 2019, signalling the future opportunity for suppliers. An expression of interest is required by 15th July 2019 to allow for potential engagement, although no formal tender submissions are needed at this stage. The total estimated value of the contract is £500,000, classified under health and social work services within the CPV scheme. This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses in the health and social services sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations. Companies capable of delivering comprehensive advice services aimed at alleviating social issues will find this opportunity particularly relevant. Engaging in this procurement process could lead to increased visibility and growth within the community, as well as the potential for future contracts as the council aligns its objectives with service delivery that meets local needs. ## Notice The London Borough of Barking and Dagenham (LBBD) during 2019, will be procuring a new Generic Advice Service which will enable residents to access information, advice and guidance to reduce the effects of social and financial exclusion caused by a broad range of factors.
