Lots Three to Seven of this programme is being procured by Ealing Council on behalf of London Councils, who will manage the on-going contract. The procurement will appoint an organisation or organisations to deliver the Individual Placement and Support for people in Brent, Ealing, Hammersmith & Fulham, Hillingdon and Hounslow who are in receipt of certain benefits and have anxiety and depression, including OCD and PTSD.
Subject to successful application for funding, this programme will be part funded by a grant from the 2014-20 European Social Fund (ESF). ESF in London is under the strategic direction of the London Enterprise Panel (LEP) and managed by the Greater London Authority (GLA) who is the Intermediate Body for ESF and European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) in London.
In London, ESF will support the London Enterprise Panel's three skills and employment themes: promoting sustainable employment and progression outcomes, ensuring individuals and employers are better informed to drive the skills and employment system and engaging with London's businesses to help drive growth in the Capital. More information can be found in the LEP's 2014-20 ESIF Strategy for London:
All ESF activity in London will be aligned to the national ESF Operational Programme, which sets the overarching strategy and priorities for ESF in England:
See ITT for detail. The Council intends to issue the Pre-Qualification Questionnaire (‘PQQ’) and Invitation to Submit Outline Solutions (‘ISOS’) at the same time, following the publication of this OJEU notice. All Tenderers shall be required to provide responses to both the PQQ and the ISOS within the timescales set out in Section IV.3.4. Tenderers that do not pass the Pre-Qualification requirements will not progress to the ISOS evaluation and will be eliminated from the remainder of this procurement process. For the purposes of clarity, where a Tenderer has not successfully passed the Pre-Qualification section, their ISOS response will not be read or evaluated, as such no feedback will be provided on their ISOS response. Following evaluation of ISOS submissions, the Council intends to invite up to four Tenderers to participate in the dialogue sessions for each Lot.
Although the contracting authority has indicated that they will use the Competitive Dialogue Procedure this is a notice for social and specific services in accordance with Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council Article 74 (Schedule 3 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (PCR)). The services required are Individual Placement and Support Services for People with Common Mental Health Conditions. Therefore the contracting authority will be adapting the Competitive Dialogue Procedure set out in Regulation 30 of the PCR as set out in the ITT and ISOS documents. The funding for this programme is subject to agreement of ESF funding agreements between GLA and London Councils which is anticipated in Q1 2016.
