ESSEX COUNTY COUNCIL CARERS SUPPORT CONTRACTS

Posted on: May 4, 2023

Essex County Council (ECC) is committed to ensuring the delivery of the most effective services for the residents of Essex, which improve outcomes and maximise opportunities, whilst ensuring best value for money for taxpayers.

Essex County Council is the second largest local authority in the United Kingdom, serving a population of over 1.5 million residents, with five acute hospitals, and a diverse range of rural and urban areas with significant coastline.

The Council currently commissions a county wide Information, Advice, Guidance and Support service for unpaid carers aged over 18.

The Council and its partners are currently examining opportunities for the ongoing provision of this service when the contract expires in March 2024 and this document provides a broad overview of the current position and operational demands.

Please note that this Market Engagement Briefing is not a Tender Specification nor is it an exhaustive list of service requirements. The purposes of this document/process are:

– To solicit interest in this service requirement and determine, with the assistance of providers, the trajectory of the sourcing project.

– To inform the final specification for the tender/contract to ensure compatibility with market capability.

It is anticipated that the Council will seek to have face-to-fact/virtual meeting with interested parties during May/June 2023.
