This initiative is designed to prepare for future contracts following the conclusion of their current Supported Accommodation Framework on 31st July 2020. The engagement event is scheduled for 18th February 2020, from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm, with registration required by 14th February 2020. Interested providers in health and social work services should respond via email to confirm attendance, with limited places allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those that cater to young people's accommodation needs. Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) would be particularly suited to engage in this procurement due to the collaborative nature of the initiative, which encourages innovative approaches to service delivery. Participating in the Market Engagement Event will allow businesses to contribute to shaping future procurement strategies, potentially enhancing their chances of securing contracts in this vital sector. ## Notice Leicestershire County Council's (LCC) Children & Family Services would like to invite interested providers to a Collaboration Event for Supported Accommodation for Young People (16+) Services. LCC's Current 16+ Supported Accommodation Framework is due to end on 31st July 2020. LCC has made the decision not to continue with a framework agreement and to include the requirements as Phase 2 of our Gateway2Resources (G2R) commissioning model (which will involve the creation of a Dynamic Purchasing System). G2R has just launched Phase 1 for Fostering Agencies and Residential Children's Homes. LCC are passionate about working with providers to co-design the detail of this category and understand what a collaborative approach could/should look like and address some of the key barriers and challenges that occur with the current approach. We would like to invite you to the Collaboration Event which is being held on Tuesday 18th February 2020. The session is scheduled to start at 10.30 am with registration from 10.00 am and will finish no later than 12.30 pm. Information about the venue will be provided upon confirmation of registration. If your organisation would like to send a delegate to this session, please respond via email to CFSCommissioningSupport@leics.gov.uk by Friday the 14th of February 2020 with the following information: * First name * Last name * Role in organisation * Email address * Contact telephone * Special access requirements (if any) Places are limited to one delegate per organisation and will be allocated on a "first come first served" basis. Please note, the Council intends to use the information gathered at the event to inform the development of the procurement solution for Supported Accommodation for Young People (16+) placements. Participating in this exercise will not affect any party positively or negatively during any eventual procurement process and the Council reserve the right not to proceed with any procurement process. Interested parties are further advised that any information given during the market engagement exercise will not form part of an interested party's tender submission and that a failure to respond to this notice will not preclude them from responding to any future contract notice. The Council will not meet any costs incurred by any party in responding to this notice. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/44092945-1cb7-41f8-b8b0-0b3705ff5d17 | | Notice type | Market Engagement Notice | | Procurement type | Dynamic, Framework | | 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 | 29 Jan 2020 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 17 Feb 2020 | | 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 | LEICESTERSHIRE COUNTY COUNCIL | | Locality | LEICESTER | | Post town | Leicester | | Postcode | LE3 8RA | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLF East Midlands (England) | | ITL 2 | TLF2 Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire | | ITL 3 | TLF22 Leicestershire CC and Rutland | | Local authority | Blaby | | Electoral ward | Glenfield Faire | | Westminster constituency | Mid Leicestershire | | Delivery location | TLF East Midlands (England) | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 29 Jan 2020 at 16:59 - Planning - Market Engagement Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/44092945-1cb7-41f8-b8b0-0b3705ff5d17 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/44092945-1cb7-41f8-b8b0-0b3705ff5d17 29th January 2020 - Early engagement notice on Contracts Finder ## Notice URLs - https://www.eastmidstenders.org ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
