This process is currently in the planning stage, with the engagement phase ending on 19 September 2019. The service aims to enhance the safety and well-being of individuals in London. Interested organisations are invited to express their interest and attend a provider event scheduled for 25 September 2019, following the submission of a questionnaire through the capital e-sourcing portal. This market engagement presents valuable opportunities for businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs), to participate in shaping an upcoming procurement process. By engaging in this exercise, organisations can gain insights into the needs of the City of London Corporation and prepare to compete effectively for future contracts related to health and social work services. Businesses with experience in outreach services or community support initiatives would be particularly well-suited for this procurement opportunity. ## Notice The City of London Corporation (the 'City') is carrying out Pre-Procurement Market Engagement ('PPME') in relation to a Rough Sleeping Outreach Service. The City will consider the feedback received to help inform its options and further decision making. For the avoidance of doubt, this phase of the project is not part of a formal procurement process and the City is not committing, at this stage, to carrying out such a process. Participation or non-participation in the PPME shall not prevent any supplier participating in a potential future procurement, nor is it intended that any information supplied as part of the PPME shall place any supplier at an advantage in a potential procurement process. Participation in the PPME will be at each organisation's own cost. No expense in responding to this PPME will be reimbursed by the City. Additional information: This is a soft market testing exercise in relation to an upcoming requirement the City of London Corporation (the City) has for a new rough sleeping outreach service for the City. The service is a contributor to the City's Department of Community and Children's Services (DCCS) business plan of providing a safe environment, more specifically that people of ages live in safe communities, safe accommodation and are protected from harm. The soft market testing will comprise: - Seeking expressions of interest and the option for organisations to attend the Provider Event on 25 September 2019; - Submission of the SMT Questionnaire - to be received by 12:00 Noon on 19 September 2019 via the capital esourcing portal. If your organisation would like to participate in this market engagement exercise and attend the provider event, it can do so by completing and returning the market testing questionnaire which can be found on the City's e-procurement portal at: www.capitalesourcing.com. Participants should register as a supplier on the portal on the aforementioned link (if not already), then search for the opportunity titled "Rough Sleeping Outreach Service" where the questionnaire can be obtained. Please ensure the questionnaire is uploaded to the capital esourcing portal ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ad6d5827-8d0b-4514-8db4-4103949c93d7 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Not specified | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | SME, VCSE | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 6 Sep 2019 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 19 Sep 2019 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planning | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION | | Locality | CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION, GUILDHALL, PO BOX 270 | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | EC2P 2EJ | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI43 Haringey and Islington | | Local authority | Islington | | Electoral ward | Clerkenwell | | Westminster constituency | Islington South and Finsbury | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 6 Sep 2019 at 15:07 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ad6d5827-8d0b-4514-8db4-4103949c93d7 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/ad6d5827-8d0b-4514-8db4-4103949c93d7 6th September 2019 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder - http://www.capitalesourcing.com Pre-Procurement Market Engagement & Supplier Day - Rough Sleeping Outreach Service ## Notice URLs - https://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
