ASC0279 - Assessment and Equipment Service for People who are Deaf, Deafened and Hard of Hearing

Leicester City Council intends to commission an Assessment and Equipment Service for people aged 18 and over, who are deaf, deafened or hard or hearing, who live within the boundary of the city of Leicester.

Commissioners would like to undertake 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 service definitions. The commissioners will use the information to appraise options and further develop the specification. This engagement is specifically aimed at specialist providers of services for deaf people

This process does not constitute a formal tender or other competitive bidding process and will not result in the letting of a Contract. The commissioners are 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 commissioners will use to judge your responses, and it is not our intention to provide any feedback.

If you would like to participate in this Soft Market Testing, then please click the link below to access the questionnaire. Please email your completed questionnaire to the email address …@leicester.gov.uk with the subject heading: 'Completed SMT Q - A&Es' before or by no later than 14:00 hours on 13th April 2022.
