## Summary

Derby City Council is in the planning stage for a market engagement and social value consultation titled "Provision of Community Short Breaks." This initiative falls within the category of other community, social, and personal services (CPV code 98000000). The consultation aims to gather insights from qualified and experienced organisations, stakeholders, and local people, with the engagement end date set for 4th October 2021. This process is designed to refine the commissioning strategy for the Community Short Breaks Service, leading to a more effective procurement process in the future.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to play a significant role in shaping community services.

Engaging with the Council now can lead to further collaboration and potential contracts as the formal tendering process unfolds.
