Soft Market Test for Recommissioning of 5 Supported Living Services - PRF 1424

A contract was issued following an open-market tender for six supported living services in the Peterborough area. The contract date was from the 01/04/2017 until the 31/03/2020 with 2 optional 1-year extensions. Both extensions have now been utilised and the service is due to end 31st March 2022 and one of the services has since closed. PCC needs to understand the current market and future options for the remaining 5 services. Potential providers are invited to respond to the questions concerning the proposed service to be procured. Responses to these questions may be used to inform our commissioning approach to the tender exercise. In order to make an informed decision on the optimum procurement approach we are looking to the market to assist. Please note that this is not a call for competition, neither is it a procurement exercise but an opportunity for Peterborough City Council to better understand the supply market and for providers to showcase their ideas.
