Early Engagement, Soft Market Assessment – Market Position Statement Adult Social Care
BCP Council would like to seek input from the market and gain interest from potential bidders, prior to formulating any formal procurement opportunity. This will provide early insight into the likely level of interest from that market and will help shape the requirement.
