The contract is anticipated to have a total value of approximately £145,000 and will span 2.5 years, commencing on 1st April 2019 and concluding on 30th June 2021. Interested providers are encouraged to express their interest by 4pm on 18th February 2019, and should register on the specified e-tendering platform to participate in this process. This tender presents a significant opportunity for businesses in the health and social work services sector, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that are capable of delivering such specialised support services. Companies that have expertise in healthcare provision, outreach programmes, and support for vulnerable populations will be well-positioned to compete for this contract, which may involve a competitive procurement process depending on the level of interest expressed. ## Notice Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership (GMHSCP) is currently developing its service specification in preparation for commissioning an Intensive Support for People Living with HIV Service. GMHSCP is undertaking market engagement in order to seek the views and opinions of those organisations that may be interested in helping to deliver the service. The purpose of this engagement is to inform the market of GMHSCP's intention to procure the service, and to assess the level of interest from capable providers who may be interested in delivering an Intensive Support for People Living with HIV Service in the near future. The contract duration will be 2.5 years and total contract value will be in the region of PS145,000 and is expected to cover the cost of salaries and travel expenses only. It is possible that this potential contract opportunity may be subject to a competitive procurement process to enable GMHSCP to identify the most suitable and qualified provider to deliver the service and at this stage, GMHSCP is only looking to gauge potential interest. Any such procurement process is likely to commence in early 2019 to enable service commencement in Spring 2019. Responses to this Expression of Interest will be used to inform the contract approach. A lack of interest being expressed in response to this invitation, may be taken as evidence by GMHSCP that a competitive process is not required.
