Lancashire Public Health 0-19 Healthy Child Programme Procurement Guidance and Networking Event

Lancashire County Council is in the process of undertaking an exercise to commission the Public Health 0-19 Healthy Child Programme (0-19 HCP) across Lancashire. As a valued stakeholder, prior to the commencement of any potential procurement exercise, we wish to invite up to a maximum of three representatives from your organisation to our Procurement Guidance and Networking Event.

The Procurement Guidance and Networking event is designed to advise potential bidders of the procurement process and will mainly feature: a technical guide on how to register your organisation on our iSupplier e-tendering system; how to access tender documents; how to access technical support during the tender; communication methods during the tender; how to create a quote using the iSupplier system and finally there will be an opportunity for stakeholders to network, creating the opportunity for collaborative working if desired. Please note: As a separate market consultation exercise has already been undertaken, the commissioning aspects of the 0-19 Healthy Child Programme will not be discussed at this event; and there will not be any commissioning based representation from Lancashire County Council.

County Hall is just over the road from Preston railway station. Please can you also make sure your company is registered with Lancashire County Council's online portal - Oracle iSupplier e-Tendering System - at the earliest opportunity.

This is vital if your organisation is interested in bidding and we recommend you do this in advance. You can do this here http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/corporate/web/?siteid=6864&p... Thank you in advance for your time.

Additional information: Please note: The purpose of this notice is to alert the market of the Procurement Guidance and Networking Event for the Lancashire Public Health 0-19 Healthy Child Programme.. This event does not guarantee a related procurement exercise in the future, however should Lancashire County Council decide to procure the service then an appropriate notice will be published to advertise the opportunity at the time. Please kindly confirm attendance by no later than 12 noon (GMT) 20 July 2017.
