The process involves pre-market engagement through a Prior Information Notice to identify suitable suppliers capable of delivering the specified requirements. The procurement will follow the Open Procedure outlined in the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The service aims to support adult social care and public health agendas in Torbay by promoting independence, wellbeing, and quality of life. This procurement by Torbay Council presents an opportunity for businesses in the health and social work services sector to provide services aligned with the Community Wellbeing requirements. Businesses with expertise in social work, community health services, and community coordination would be well-suited to compete. The contract has a potential extension of up to one year beyond the initial 2-year term, providing a longer-term partnership opportunity for interested suppliers. ## Notice Torbay Council are publishing a Prior Information Notice (PIN) to inform the market of a potential opportunity for Community Wellbeing and to initiate pre-market engagement by way of Expression of Interest for the purpose of enabling the Local Authority to identify within the market: 1. Suppliers with the skills, experiences and expertise to deliver the requirements laid out in Appendix A Draft Specification 2. Identify interested parties to this opportunity; and 3. Identify capable, interested parties who can deliver the requirements of the procurement within the proposed timescales. The background of this requirement is the demand for Adult Social care in Torbay is continuing to increase. To address our critical need to meet the needs of local people in a community-focused way and reduce the demand of individuals for statutory support to maintain their independence, health and wellbeing in the community, we need to ensure there are robust mechanisms and community support services in place to enable people to connect and engage with community-based support within their own neighbourhoods in Torbay. The overarching purpose of this requirement will focus on delivering the preventative aspects of Adult Social Care and Public Health which will promote and actively support the independence, wellbeing and quality of life for Adults in Torbay. It will prevent or delay the need for Torbay residents to access higher cost more intensive support. ### Lot Information Lot 1 The Procurement will be undertaken in accordance with Regulations 74, 75 and 76 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) relating to the award of contracts for Social and Other Specific Services, the tender process will broadly follow the Open Procedure as outlined within the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102).
