Scope

Description

Lincolnshire County Council is exploring new and innovative ways to

collaborate with providers in shaping the future of Day Opportunities (previously known as

Buildings Based Day Care) across the county. We are committed to working in

partnership to review current services and identify opportunities for working differently,

that will better meet the needs of individuals and communities.

At this stage, the future model of Day Opportunities is not yet defined. Through this

engagement, we aim to gather valuable input from the market to help shape the new

service scope.

We will be seeking responses via a Pre-Market Engagement Questionnaire. Once the

questionnaire has been published, we ask that responses are returned via the

ProContract portal: https://procontract.due-north.com/ by 5pm on the 26th September 2025.

We also aim to complete further engagement in due course.
