The Councils invite suitably qualified service providers to attend a market engagement event outlining our procurement intentions for the provision of ISHS within the three boroughs. The event will be held between 9:30 and 23:30 on Monday 2.10.2017 at Room CR3b, Romford, Town Hall, RM1 3BD. This event will offer an opportunity to inform providers of the Councils' vision for services, the tendering process and timetable for procurement. There will also be opportunity for providers to seek clarity on the model, ask questions and make comments where appropriate. This exercise is not part of any pre-qualification or selection process. It is intended as an awareness, communication and information-gathering exercise offering an opportunity for potential providers to help understand commissioning intentions and offer opportunities for potential future providers to network, forge partnerships and start thinking about service delivery models. Organisations interested in attending the event should confirm their attendance by emailing Adebimpe.winjobi@elevateeastlondon.co.uk latest by 10:00 Friday 29.9.2017.
