This tender, classified under Health and social work services (CPV code: 85000000), is in the planning stage, with a future notice anticipated on 8th July 2022. The delivery of services is aimed at assisting adults in the Redbridge area, and interested providers are encouraged to assess their capacity to participate in this upcoming opportunity. This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses specialising in health and social care services, particularly those with expertise in Occupational Therapy. Companies that are well-equipped to conduct thorough assessments and provide tailored support may find this contract advantageous, helping to reduce the demand for internal resources within the council while enhancing service delivery for residents in need of assistance. ## Notice This exercise is intended to assess the level of interest from potential providers, to provide Occupational Therapy Adult assessments.

OT intervention is primarily preventative, and the cost benefits associated with the provision of personalised home adaptations is well evidenced. OT's are effective at preventing, reducing or delaying the need for care and support based on a holistic picture of the individual or family, taking into consideration informal support networks and an asset-based approach which is complementary to maximising individual and community Resilience Our overall outcome for Redbridge Adult Services is to promote the wellbeing of people in Redbridge, making the best use of available resources to enable adults to live in the community independently and safely, free from abuse and neglect. Due to an increase in demand for assessments and limited internal capacity there is a backlog in Occupational Therapy (OT) assessments at Redbridge Council. We are therefore seeking to outsource OT assessments to be completed over a 12-month period to clear the backlog. At this stage there is no commitment to a minimum or maximum number of cases that will be required by the provider.
