Description

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the independent regulator of health and social care in England. We make sure health and social care services provide people with safe, effective, compassionate, high-quality care and we encourage care services to improve. We monitor, inspect and regulate services and publish what we find. Where we find poor care, we will use our powers to take action.

CQC has a legal duty under the Health and Social Care Act to involve people in the way it works. The Health and Social Care Act 2008, specifies that CQC can 'arrange for any of its functions to be exercised by, or with the assistance of, service users and carers'.

The Experts by Experience contracts are key mechanisms used by CQC to achieve this.

Lot 1 CQC Experts by Experience Services: this lot is for support to regulatory activity conducted by subject matter experts with lived experience of specific healthcare or social care needs.

Lot 2 CQC Public Engagement Network: this lot is for developing and maintaining and expanding the public engagement network and organising related events.

CQC is conducting this procurement using the Restricted Procedure under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This is a two-stage process. Suppliers must submit a completed Supplier Selection Questionnaire (SQ) and supporting documents by 3 April 2025 at 12:00 noon.

The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge at:

North Northamptonshire Council (hereafter referred to as the "Council") wishes to invite Tender Responses for the Framework for the Provision of Drug & Alcohol Services for North Northamptonshire. In North Northamptonshire, the Council are imagining the future, setting aside the everyday problems that stifle creative thinking and imagining how we make North Northamptonshire the best possible place to live in 2050. Every decision we make focuses our energies and plans to make that a reality. Our commissioning focuses on prevention and associated actions that will enable people to live their best lives. This service specification has been developed to set out North Northamptonshire Council's requirements for drug and alcohol services that will aim to deliver a recovery focused treatment system. The specification also details delivery of system objectives and interventions to address the identified drug and alcohol related needs. The aim is to reshape the current adult drug and alcohol service provision into a whole-systems, integrated drug and alcohol treatment pathway. Our goal is to increase the number of people able to achieve sustained recovery from dependence by providing individualised support and care to reduce harms caused by addiction and dependence. North Northamptonshire Council have high aspirations; every child in North Northamptonshire will have the best start in life and achieve everything they are capable of in childhood and adulthood. We believe that with the proper support, more young people will be in good physical and emotional health, thrive at school and have set strong foundations for adulthood. Our young people deserve services that support their development with professionals who are as invested in their success as we are. The Council proposes to enter into one (1) Contract for an initial period of 60 months with the preferred Potential Supplier for Lot 1: Specialist Alcohol & Drug Services (Adults) and Lot 2: Young People's (11-25) Drug & Alcohol Support, Intervention & Wellbeing Service with an option to extend for 24+24 months, making 108 months in total. The contract for this project will be awarded via the Open Process, subject to the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 do not apply to this award.
