## Summary

The procurement process involves Peterborough City Council, which is seeking to engage with the market through a soft market test for the recommissioning of five supported living services. This initiative is classified under health and social work services and falls within the services procurement category. The tender is in the planning stage, with a future notice date set for January 26, 2022. The services to be delivered are located in the Peterborough area within the UKH11 region. This exercise provides potential providers the opportunity to contribute ideas that may shape the forthcoming commissioning approach.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses operating in the health and social care sector, particularly those that are experienced in managing supported living services. Companies that offer innovative solutions and have a strong understanding of community needs in the Peterborough region would be particularly well-suited to engage in this market. Participation in this soft market test allows businesses to showcase their proposals and insights, potentially leading to future contracts as the council re-evaluates its service provision after the current contracts conclude.

## Notice

A contract was issued following an open-market tender for six supported living services in the Peterborough area. The contract date was from the 01/04/2017 until the 31/03/2020 with 2 optional 1-year extensions. Both extensions have now been utilised and the service is due to end 31st March 2022 and one of the services has since closed. PCC needs to understand the current market and future options for the remaining 5 services. Potential providers are invited to respond to the questions concerning the proposed service to be procured. Responses to these questions may be used to inform our commissioning approach to the tender exercise. In order to make an informed decision on the optimum procurement approach we are looking to the market to assist. Please note that this is not a call for competition, neither is it a procurement exercise but an opportunity for Peterborough City Council to better understand the supply market and for providers to showcase their ideas.
