## Summary

The Ministry of Justice is planning a Market Engagement & Industry Day as part of the HMPPS Creating Future Opportunities Evolution Programme. The programme aims to provide resettlement support to individuals in custody and the community, with a contract award period in the fourth quarter of 2023. Interested organisations can attend events on February 17th and March 17th, 2023, either in Manchester or virtually. The intended contract period is 36 months, starting from January 2024, with extension options available.

This public procurement opportunity in the probation services category offers a chance for service providers to engage in the rehabilitation and support of offenders, promoting positive reintegration into society. Businesses offering services related to education, community provision, and rehabilitation are well-suited to compete for this contract. The planned Market Engagement & Industry Day presents a networking opportunity for lead providers and potential subcontractors to collaborate in delivering HMPPS core services effectively.

## Notice

Following the market engagement events held in 2022, CFO Evolution will be holding a number of industry days to provide an update on the various aspects of the CFO Evolution programme and provide potential providers an opportunity to network with other sector providers. The CFO Evolution programme will build on the successes of the CFO3 and CFO Activity Hub programmes to create a single delivery programme which will complement existing HMPPS core services and provide resettlement support to individuals in custody and the community. Contract award period will be the fourth quarter of 2023, with contracts mobilising from January 2024 (delivery from April 2024), these dates may be subject to change. Initial contract period will be 36 months (including 3 months for mobilisation). Extension options are defined within the specification. The MoJ will hold the initial event on Friday 17th February 2023 between 10am and 3pm at the CJC Manchester and a virtual event via MS Teams on Friday 17th March 2023 between 10am and 3pm. Interested organisations should respond to the CFO_Evolution@justice.gov.uk mailbox clearly state which event you wish to attend and details of attendees, (name, role, email & contact phone number) by Friday 10th February 2023 for the Manchester event and by Tuesday 14th March 2023 for the virtual event. Providers should also indicate if they are willing to engage with other providers in the networking element of the event as either a lead provider or potential subcontractor. Links to the virtual event will be sent closer to the date of the event. This notice relates to an engagement opportunity and is not a call for competition or an invitation to take part in pre-qualification proceedings.
