The brief

THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION Leicester City Council is considering commissioning a HIV Peer Support service on behalf of the LLR ICB and University Hospitals Leicester.

This will be to support those who receive a new diagnosis of HIV, including those who are identified by the new opt-out testing programme to be established in the emergency department.

It is anticipated that this service would need to commence by January 2025 to align with the new testing programme.

As part of the commissioning process, the authority is undertaking a soft market test.

This gives potential providers and other stakeholders the opportunity to express their interests and feed in their views about the potential service model and specification principles.

The commissioners will use the information to appraise options and further develop the specification.

Further information regarding this service is contained within the document "Soft Market Testing HIV Peer Support - November 2024".

This process does not constitute a formal tender or other competitive bidding process and will not result in the letting of a Contract.

The authority is using this process solely to test the market to gather information and ascertain the level of interest in this particular service.

There are therefore no formal criteria which we will use to judge your responses and it is not our intention to provide any feedback.

This completed questionnaire must be returned via the proactis response box by 1200hrs (midday) on Friday 15th November 2024.
