## Summary

The London Borough of Camden Council has awarded a contract for the Integrated Camden Alcohol Service to Change Grow Live. This short-term contract, valued at £1,102,823, will commence on 1st April 2022 and run until 31st March 2023. The procurement method involved a direct award following a Voluntary Ex-Ante Transparency (VEAT) notice, and the current procurement stage is complete. The main industry category for this service is health, specifically substance misuse treatment, located in London, United Kingdom.

This tender presents a viable opportunity for both small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to engage in the public health sector. Businesses that specialise in health services, particularly those dealing with alcohol and substance misuse treatment, would be well-positioned to compete in future procurement exercises, especially as the authority seeks to develop an integrated drug and alcohol treatment system from April 2023. Engaging with stakeholders has been emphasised, indicating a collaborative approach to service provision in this area.

## Notice

A contract for twelve months has been awarded to the incumbent provider Change Grow Live (CGL) for the following reasons. The Authority has four substance misuse contracts which includes the Integrated Camden Alcohol service. The intention was to recommission these during 2020 for new contracts to begin on 1st April 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant impact on staffing levels across current and potential providers and capacity of the Public Health department and senior colleagues within the council. Operational delivery by current providers has prioritised safe delivery of frontline services which has required significant adaptation of services to ensure services are provided in a covid secure way and thereby protecting both service users and frontline staff. Given the impact of COVID-19 The Authority has had to delay the planned procurement exercise. Three of the current substance misuse contracts have been extended to 31st March 2023 as allowed for under the terms and conditions. The Integrated Camden Alcohol service ends on 31st March 2022, so a new 12 month contract is required to co-align it with the three other substance misuse contracts whilst the recommissioning process takes place. From Winter 2021, Public Health commissioners aim to collaborate with stakeholders and the market to help and develop an integrated drug and alcohol treatment system from April 2023.
