## Summary

The Hampshire County Council is seeking to enhance the Care Provider Market through a partnership initiative titled "Care Provider Market Development Partnership". This contract, classified under health and social work services, is intended to foster collaboration with service providers in the South East, specifically Winchester, where it is based. The procurement process followed a direct method, involving a single tender action, with the contract valued at £28,000. The contract period runs from 1st April 2021 to 31st March 2022, with the award date recorded as 31st March 2021.

This tender presents valuable opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) looking to engage in the health and social care sector. Businesses that specialise in care services and market development, particularly those with innovative solutions or effective networks, would be well-positioned to compete. The ongoing collaboration aims to address challenges and leverage opportunities within the care market, especially as it recovers from the impacts of COVID-19.

## Notice

This service has been designed to build on the partnership arrangements with the aim of further understanding, shaping and improving the Hampshire Care Provider market. The intention is to develop the on-going and continuing relationship between the County Council and the service provider. Through this partnership approach, the partners will support the common goals of both organisations, working with the wider market to promote new initiatives designed to help ensure the markets are best placed to meet the challenges of the future, and in particular as the market recovers from COVID 19. Through this arrangement, the County Council and the provider are seeking to develop a greater understanding and insight into the challenges and opportunities that exist within this sector, and work collaboratively to help shape the market to meet future demands, developing improved networks, new ways of working and innovative uses of new and existing technological options.
