The commissioners would like to hear from any potential provider who would be willing to complete and submit the attached form, and then present and discuss their probable service delivery model, capability and capacity to help design the LLR service specification.

The commissioners would value expert insight that can be given into the delivery of this type of service and information would be greatly received. Whilst this is to help properly design a realistic service specification for an upcoming tender covering the LLR region the information you give may be shared with other CCG’s in England.

Also the information you provide and your details may be used in any rationale for the service specification content. If you are interested in meeting with the commissioners please can you complete the attached feedback form if you have not already done so, and contact the procurement team, on LLRProcurement@ardengemcsu.nhs.uk with the following details by no later than 5pm Wednesday 27th July 2016: • Name of delegates • Job titles of delegates • Organisation details, including address • Delegate email addresses and telephone numbers.

You will then be contacted to arrange an hour slot at a time convenient to the commissioners, at their offices in LLR. Please be aware that the commissioners will try to be as accommodating as possible within the timeline available.
