The Essex Drug and Alcohol Partnership
(EDAP) are seeking toprocure an independent
Support, Advice andMentoring service.
This is an excellent opportunity for organisations to work alongside the Essex Integrated
Recovery System.
The service will be expected to be staffed predominantly by a volunteer workforce and
requires the capacity and competence to work with adults, young people and families
affected by substance misuse in order to support them to achieve long term recovery.
EDAP are inviting organisations to attend a two hour Supplier Workshop. This workshop
will provide interested organisations the opportunity to find out more about the Essex
Integrated Recovery System and the proposed role of an independent Support, Advice
and Mentoring service in contributing to the long term recovery for our clients, their
families/carers and the wider community. The Supplier Workshop will also provide
potential suppliers with the opportunity to discover more about the procurement process
and meet EDAP commissioners.
Date: 24th October 2012. Time: 10 am – 12pm.
Venue: Central Chelmsford location to be confirmed
To book a place at the Supplier Workshop please email:
essexdat@essex.gov.uk
by 16th October 2012.
Places are limited to two people per organisation.
Following the workshop it is EDAP’s intention to competitively tender the above provision
in accordance with Essex County Council (ECC) procurement process throughout
Autumn/Winter 2012 with a forecasted contract start date of 1st April 2013.
Organisations are asked to register with ECC’s supplier portal Ariba
www.essex.gov.uk/Business-Partners/Supplying-Council
. Ariba is free to register
and, following registration, potential supplier organisations can respond to the ECC’s
tendering opportunities online.
