CPU8045 (PME)- Changing Futures Specialist Navigator Services - Preliminary Market Engagement

Description

Nottingham City Council is undertaking a Pre-Market Engagement (PME) exercise to inform the future commissioning of Specialist Navigator Services within the Changing Futures Nottingham Programme. These services provide practical and emotional support to help people experiencing severe and multiple disadvantage engage with the services they need. Following a commissioning review, the Council is proposing a refreshed service model. We are now seeking feedback from the market to help shape and refine the design of these future services. About This Engagement This PME aims to: - Share information on the current contracting arrangements and the proposed future model. - Gather views, insights, and feedback from providers with relevant experience. - Ensure the final service design is well-informed, deliverable, and reflective of market capacity and innovation. Please note: This is not a tender or contract opportunity. It is solely a market engagement exercise. How to Take Part 1.
