Future Home Care Service Model Development Nottingham City Council (NCC) Commissioning & Partnerships Invitation to current and prospective home care providers for Nottingham City Nottingham City Council is committed to working collaboratively with the home care market to develop a future service model that delivers high-quality, person-centred support for citizens across Nottingham City. As part of this process, NCC is inviting providers who deliver home care services to attend a Pre-Market Engagement Event. Purpose of the Event The engagement session will provide an opportunity for NCC to: • Share early thinking and potential options for the future home care model. • Present ideas being considered for future service delivery arrangements. • Seek provider expertise, feedback and innovative solutions to inform future commissioning decisions. • Explore how services can best meet the changing needs of Nottingham City citizens while supporting a sustainable local provider market. • Gather intelligence from providers with local knowledge of Nottingham City's communities, demographics, care needs, workforce challenges and opportunities to improve outcomes for citizens. Interactive Provider Engagement This event is intended to be a collaborative and interactive workshop. Providers will have the opportunity to: • Share experiences of delivering services • Identify elements of the new model options that work well. • Highlight challenges and areas that could be improved. • Contribute ideas and practical solutions to support future service development. • Discuss opportunities for innovation, quality improvement and market sustainability. NCC recognises the valuable knowledge and expertise within the local provider market and is keen to ensure that provider feedback helps shape future commissioning intentions. Who Should Attend?

Attendance is limited to 100 places, which will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. To allow as many organisations as possible to participate, we ask that only one representative per provider attends. Important Information This engagement activity is being undertaken for market research and service development purposes only.

It is not a forum to discuss individual contracts, contract management issues, pricing arrangements, performance matters or operational concerns relating to existing NCC contracts. Participation in this event will not form part of any procurement process, nor will it confer any advantage or disadvantage should a future procurement exercise be undertaken. Attendance at this event does not constitute a commitment by Nottingham City Council to procure services, award contracts or offer any future business opportunities. Any future commissioning or procurement activity will be undertaken separately and in accordance with relevant procurement legislation and Council procedures.
