Description
The Seven Force Commercial Team is supporting the Police and Crime Commissioner ("PCC") for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough in identifying interested organisations to deliver an all age and all gender Countywide Sexual Violence Support Service which includes a Countywide ISVA Service. The service should be available regardless of when the incident happened and whether or not it has been reported to the police.
Prior to the formal re-commissioning we are issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to providers who have the specialist knowledge and relevant current experience and resources required to mobilise and deliver the complete service in a way which ensures victims/survivors receive a continuous support. This will enable us to understand the current market as the responses will be used to assist us in the further refinement of the service specification and the approach to commissioning the service going forward.
Please note there is no intention to separate elements of this service therefore only organisations with the skills, experience and resources to deliver all elements of the service are invited to submit RFIs.
Please also be aware that this RFI is not intended to be a call for competition.
