Description
Essex County Council (ECC) are re-commissioning the Autism Navigation Service (ANS) for Autistic adults across Essex, Thurrock, and Southend. The ANS is a unique service that supports adults (18+) seeking a diagnosis, or who already have a diagnosis, of autism. The service provides support rooted in advocacy on a 1:1 basis pre, mid and post-diagnostic assessment. The aim is to help a person to navigate the pathway, and access additional support to overcome issues, preventing needs from escalating. For the avoidance of doubt, this contract is being awarded under CPV Code: 85323000-9, which states "Community health services, but only in respect of community health services which are delivered to individuals". The contract is for a period of three (3) years with the option to extend for a further (2) years, subject to governance. For the avoidance of doubt, the total value of this contract has been calculated using the total five (5) year period. The yearly cost of this service totals £250,000.00, giving a total cost for the three (3) years of £750,000.00 and a total cost for the five (5) years of £1,250,000.00. This is an existing service, with an existing provider.
