Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process involves Devon County Council seeking an open tender for the contract titled "CP1479-17 Social Care and Health Advocacy for Adults and Children in Devon and Torbay." This contract, valued at £5,085,603, focuses on providing advocacy services for both adults and children using health and social care services in the Devon and Torbay areas.

This tender presents significant growth opportunities for businesses in the health and social care sector, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). Businesses specialising in advocacy services, social care, and health-related support are particularly well-suited to compete for this contract, which encourages collaborative approaches among service providers. The emphasis on partnership working suggests that organisations that can demonstrate strong community ties and a commitment to enhancing service user experiences will have a competitive advantage.
