## About this tender

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the independent regulatory of health and adult social care in England. CQC is responsible for monitoring and inspecting these services to ensure they are providing care that is safe, effective, caring and responsive to people's needs and well-led listening to acting on people's experiences of care is vital to CQC's work, as it helps us to decide when, where and what to inspect, supports better registration, inspection, judgements and ratings, and result in better information for the public. Since 2012 CQC has established a number of partnerships with national voluntary organisations, known as 'Tell us Partnerships' in order to increase our access to people's experiences of care via organisations that are already working with and hearing from people on an ongoing basis.

Further information can be found at: [cqc.org.uk](https://www.cqc.org.uk/get-involved/share-your-experience/tell-us-about-your-care-partnerships)

The contract will commence from 1st September 2023 for initial 12 months with 2 x 12 months optional extensions.

Due to the likely specialist nature of the requirements, CQC considers that this specific expertise is not widely available through current government procurement channels or frameworks, the procurement will follow the Open procedure (below threshold).

The Authority wish to utilise the entire budget across as many suitable suppliers as possible prioritising the three core areas identified in the ITT. The Authority will award contracts to the highest scoring providers up to the maximum total budget value of Â£62,800.00 Inc VAT per annum. Once this budget cap is met no further contracts will be awarded.

The full specification of requirements is set out in the 'Invitation to Tender' pack available at CQC's e-sourcing portal Atamis:
