## Notice

Plymouth City Council with Devon Integrated Commissioning Board (ICB) wishes to engage with providers that would be interested in delivering a Refugee Integration and Support Service, ensuring full collaboration and integration with the strong voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector locally. We are looking for providers to work collaboratively as partnerships who have the capability and capacity to take part in the delivery. The full scope of the services is in the process of being defined, and the Commissioners will be hosting market engagement activities with the aim of: * Engaging with and enabling the market * Understanding the interest there might be in providing such services from suitably qualified VCSE providers, and the manner in which the services can best be collaboratively provided * Informing the commissioning and contracting process

### Lot Information

Lot 1

The services are health and social care services falling within Schedule 3 to the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 ("the Regulations") which are not subject to the full regime of the Regulations but are instead governed by the "Light Touch Regime" contained within Chapter 3, Section 7 of the Regulations (Regulations 74 to 77). We are looking for providers to work collaboratively as partnerships who have the capability and capacity to take part in the delivery. The EOIs received and the market engagement activities will be used to help the Commissioners finalise their commissioning and contracting approach for these services, as well as, to inform the decision on whether to proceed to a procurement process directly with the engaged parties. It is anticipated that this will consist of two stages: (1) Stage 1 - Suitability Assessment - The aim of this stage is to test the capability and capacity of potential provider collaborations and to identify whether there is more than one capable provider partnership. The evaluation criteria for this pass/fail Suitability Assessment will be set out in procurement documents to be issued to the engaged parties; (2) Stage 2 will either be: (a) A competitive process (if more than one capable provider partnership is identified at Stage 1), which may involve dialogue and will involve assessment of bids against published evaluation criteria and weightings; or (b) A partnership "Assurance Process" with a single group, if only one capable provider partnership is identified at Stage 1. The evaluation criteria for Stage 2 will be set out in the procurement documents to be issued to engaged parties who are successful at Stage 1; Any new contract let as part of this commissioning process is expected to be for a period of 4 years, with the option to extend by up to a further 5 years. For further details and instructions on how to apply to take part please visit www.supplyingthesouthwest.org.uk project DN666997 Resettlement Support Service under Plymouth City Council opportunities.

Options: Option to extend by up to 36 months followed by a further option to extend for up to 24 months. (5 years extension options in total)
