## Description
Surrey County Council (SCC) is looking to further develop its Independent Alternative Provision Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) and would like to hear from organisations who have experience in this area of provision. This is not an invitation to tender.
Following the Market Engagement Workshops and events in 2023 and culminating to the first successful opening of the DPS, Surrey County Council warmly invites you to take part in our Market Engagement Event for potential and existing providers of Independent Alternative provision. This includes Non-Maintained Independent (NMI) provision who may wish to contribute to Surrey County Council’s Independent Alternative Provision (AP) community.
Independent Alternative Provision is provision largely for one-to-one support, children and young people who require specialist intervention (in many cases but not exclusively for their additional needs) which in many cases is delivered in the home or in the community with the support of / or at the request of families.
This may include:
- Tutoring (QTS qualified and non QTS qualified)
- Specialist teachers
- Services supporting education
- Community based service(s) (for example, equine care)
- Registered therapy (such as physiotherapy, speech & language or Occupational)
- Post-16 Support Services & pathways
The purpose of this event will be to:
- Summarise feedback received from Providers at the previous Market Events
- Provide additional opportunity to provide tips / areas to consider around the next tender window.
- Share with potential providers information around the service specification and pricing schedule model for admission to the DPS
- Provide information on registering to the e-tendering system Proactis and share resources to support Providers with using the system; and
- Outline next steps in the procurement process and proposed timetable
Any interested organisation or consortium with the experience, capability and capacity to deliver Independent Alternative Provision services as laid out in this PIN notice may register for the Market Engagement Event. The Commissioning organisations welcome collaborations and partnerships organised within a lead provider model.
It is anticipated that the tender opportunity will be published by Mid-June 2024 through Proactis: https://supplierlive.proactisp2p.com/Account/Login?cid=surreycc#
