VIRUAL MARKET ENGAGEMENT EVENT FOR INFORMATION, ADVICE AND GUIDANCE SERVICE

Tender description

Haringey Council ("the Council") is in process of re-commissioning the borough wide Information, Advice and Guidance (IAG) Service which provides high quality, accurate and consistent information, advice and guidance which is current, relevant and essential for all young people, adults, carers, advocates and residents to know in order to live independently and achieve their version of a 'good life'. This service plays an important role in maximising our resident's independence and helps prevent reliance and dependency on more intensive care and support, as well as on other statutory services. The IAG service is made up of different priorities from the North Central London Clinical Commissioning Group (NCL CCG), Better Care Fund (BCF) and Housing Related Support (HRS) which collectively aim to better integrate services in Haringey; improving health, housing, education and employment prospects for all residents. Its overall purpose is to prevent homelessness and provide people with the tools and skills to maintain their independence, improve their health and wellbeing whilst reducing reliance on statutory services. The Council is committed to working with the marketplace to maximise the commissioning opportunities to be gained under this contract and therefore would like to invite interested providers to attend pre-tender Market Engagement Event. This event will be held virtually via Microsoft Teams on: Date: Tuesday, 15th June 2021 Time: 10:30am The market engagement event will include a presentation of the Council's commissioning intentions, overview of the anticipated requirements and the proposed procurement process. It will also offer potential service providers the opportunity to raise any questions or present any views prior to proceeding to the 'Invitation to Tender' phase of our commissioning programme. We therefore encourage Commercial, SMEs, Voluntary and Community Sector organisations, new and existing providers who deliver Information, Advice and Guidance service to the public to attend the event and provide feedback/share views.
