The Contracting Authority (Southwark Council) has commenced an exploratory process to update provider landscape knowledge, best practice and market sector considerations in relation to the future provision of an all-age community integrated drug and alcohol treatment and recovery system service contract, including a support offer for people of all ages affected by the substance use of another person.
The council is seeking market engagement with providers of these services through completion of an online questionnaire following review of a supporting document.
Responses required by 17:00 on Friday 14 March 2025.

The Contracting Authority invites interested service providers to participate in market testing by responding to an online questionnaire available via this link:
https://forms.office.com/e/bMRbjgKPFM.
Closing date for submissions is by 17:00 on Friday 14 March 2025.
This soft market testing exercise is part of exploratory research around the future commissioning options for the service contract. It is purely investigatory in nature, although it may be used to assist the council in the development of the future delivery model, service viability and the potential routes to market under the Provider Selection Regime. For the avoidance of doubt, this is not a call for competition and providing a response will not preclude your participation in any future procurement exercise.
