## Summary

Essex County Council is conducting a tender for "Mental Health Supported to Independence Services" aimed at providing essential support for adults with mental health issues and complex behaviours in Essex. This procurement is classified under health and social work services, with an estimated contract value of £2,600,000. The tender period has ended, while the contract is set to run from November 18, 2018, to October 17, 2020. The procurement was carried out through an open procedure, facilitating a broad competition for potential providers.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in mental health support and community services, particularly those capable of delivering daily living skills training to vulnerable populations. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that have experience in similar service provision may find this contract suitable, especially those that can collaborate effectively with Intensive Enablement providers to enhance support for individuals on their recovery journey.

## Notice

Supported to Independence services provide support for adults who have a mental health issue and behaviour needs which is impacting on their ability to sustain their accommodation. The services for Supported to Independence will be set up as a framework. The service will need to provide daily living skills support to approximately 248 vulnerable people in Essex with a primary diagnosis of mental health. The adults supported in this provision may still have complex needs, but would not require the same levels of support as that provided in Intensive Enablement. Supported to Independence providers will work closely with Intensive Enablement providers and other community provision such as Futures in Mind to support move on for adults who are on their recovery journey. This will be within current and new accommodation settings.
