The services to be provided include mental health, substance misuse and pharmacy services. The Contracting Authority is issuing this Prior Information Notice (PIN) to engage with the market and to gather information in order to gain a better understanding of both the capacity and appetite of the market in delivering the proposed services, and to alert the market to a future tender opportunity. It is important to note that this PIN is not a call for competition and as such you will need to express your interest in any future tender opportunity once the contract notice is published in OJEU and on Contracts Finder (approximately June 2019). It should be noted that this PIN invites individuals and organisations to express an interest only, and it is not a pre-qualification questionnaire, and is not part of any pre-qualification or selection process. This PIN is intended as an awareness, communication, and information gathering exercise. An expression of interest is no indication of a commitment to participate in the procurement process nor does it infer any preferential or special status on those individuals and organisations who express an interest. The market engagement event will be held on Friday 12.4.2019 at MacDonald Old England Hotel, Bowness on Windermere, LA23 3DF from 10:00 - 12:00.
