Summary of the contracting process

The Leicester City Council is conducting a procurement process titled "PAN1652 - Voluntary and Community Sector Support Service", aimed at enhancing support for the city’s Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS). This contract, which falls under the "Other community, social and personal services" category, has a total value of £480,000 over two years, with funding allocated to both the Adventure Playgrounds and health and well-being services. The procurement method is classified as an "open" procedure, with the contract period starting on 1 October 2017 and ending on 30 September 2019. The tender phase has been completed, and the contract was awarded on 29 September 2017, with all formalities published on 2 October 2017.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary and community sector organisations, particularly those adept at delivering community support services. Businesses focused on enhancing civic engagement, health services, and community development, especially in relation to preventive health care and children's activities, would be well-positioned to compete for this contract. Given the Council's dedication to sustaining a vibrant VCS, companies that can demonstrate innovative approaches to funding generation and service provision will likely find great value in participating in future opportunities related to this initiative.

Notice Information

Notice Title

PAN1652 - Voluntary and Community Sector Support Service

Notice Description

The Supplier is required to provide support to the city's Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) in accord with the strategic aims for the sector held by the Authority and its partner organisations. The Authority is committed to supporting a vibrant, wide-ranging and effective VCS in Leicester, as an expression of shared common purpose, civic responsibility, integration and cohesion in the city. The long-term strategic goal is that local VCS groups and organisations should be viable in their own right. The Authority and its partner organisations recognise that this is an ongoing process, as new groups and organisations arise from different communities and in response to emerging challenges, needs and opportunities. As the Authority's Children and Young People's Service is a significant contributor to this funding allocation, the Supplier will be required to dedicate a specified proportion (i.e. 25%) of the total support per quarter to the city's Adventure Playgrounds, with particular emphasis on helping them with income generation. As Leicester City Clinical Commissioning Group is a funding partner to this service, the Supplier will be required to dedicate a specified proportion (i.e. 25%) of the total support per quarter to organisations promoting or providing health and well-being services, particularly related to cardiovascular disease, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), mental health and older people, which are all strategic priority improvement areas for Leicester City CCG. The Authority and CCG's funding threshold for this service is PS320,000 for two years (PS160,000 per year), with a discretionary extension of a further year. We would expect competitive pricing submissions in relation to this.
