## About this tender

Surrey County Council (SCC) is looking to commission its Independent Alternative Provision services 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 Workshop in March 2023, 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

We anticipate that the future contract may be structured into Lots for each specialism – with sub-lots for virtual/online support and another for face to face support.

The purpose of this event will be to:

- Share feedback received from Providers at the March 2023 Market Engagement Workshop and visual output
- Share with you our strategic vision and priorities for the development of Independent Alternative provision in Surrey.
- Explore the shared values and ways of working that will help us collaborate effectively in the future, as we begin the process of recommissioning the future Independent Alternative Provision offer; and
- Update and gain feedback on the proposed procurement route and indicative 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.

The detailed service requirements are still in development, and information gathered from this Market Event will inform the Service Specification and key outcomes as well as the procurement process.

Providers will also be invited to attend future Market Engagement Events for this opportunity.

It is anticipated that the tender opportunity will be published by Early Autumn 2023 through Proactis: [supplierlive.proactisp2p.com/Account/Login](https://supplierlive.proactisp2p.com/Account/Login?cid=surreycc#)
