Request

I am writing under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 to request information relating to your organisation's planned commissioning and procurement activity. I have checked your published information and have been unable to locate what I am looking for.

I should be grateful if you would provide details of your current commissioning and procurement pipeline covering the period from September 2026 to March 2028 (or the nearest available future planning period).

For each planned opportunity, where available, please provide:

•    The name or title of the service, contract, framework or programme.
•    A brief description of the requirement.
•    The commissioning department or service area responsible.
•    The anticipated procurement route (e.g. open tender, framework call-off, grant, direct award, provider selection regime process, etc.).
•    The anticipated publication date of any procurement notices or market engagement activity.
•    The anticipated contract start date.
•    The anticipated contract term and any extension options.
•    The estimated contract value or value range.
•    The geographical area covered.
•    Details of any planned market engagement events, provider information sessions or pre-procurement consultation activity.

If your organisation maintains a commissioning, procurement or contract pipeline document, I would be grateful if a copy could be provided in electronic format.

Where information is already publicly available, please provide a direct link to the relevant webpage or publication rather than reproducing the information.

If some of the requested information is exempt from disclosure, please provide the remaining information and specify the exemption(s) relied upon for any information withheld.

For the avoidance of doubt, this request relates to commissioning and procurement opportunities for health, public health, adult social care, carers' services, community wellbeing, prevention, older people's services, dementia support, social prescribing, home support, advocacy, information and advice, and other related community-based services where future commissioning activity is planned.

I would prefer to receive the information electronically by email, in Excel, CSV, PDF, Word or another readily accessible format.
