Summary of the contracting process

The procurement process titled "Psychological Wellbeing and Work Pilots - Telephone Support" was initiated by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to support individuals with common mental health issues in the Yorkshire and Humber and South Yorkshire areas. The project, classified under the CPV code for education and training services, aims to trial telephony-based interventions for Jobseeker's Allowance (JSA) claimants. The contract, awarded on August 1, 2014, is active and has a total value of £58,150, with a project period starting on August 4, 2014, and concluding on December 5, 2014. The procurement method used was an open procedure, providing an inclusive platform for participation.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses focused on mental health services, employment support, and educational training, particularly SMEs and voluntary and community sector enterprises that can offer specialised telephony-based support. Companies equipped to develop and implement innovative employment interventions, as well as those with experience in addressing the wellbeing needs of unemployed individuals, would be well-suited to engage in this initiative, potentially leading to expansion and greater involvement in the public sector.

Notice Title

Psychological Wellbeing and Work Pilots - Telephone Support

Notice Description

Through the Contestable Policy Fund, RAND Europe were commissioned by the Minister for Welfare Reform and the Minister for Care and Support to develop proposals for measures on how to achieve better outcomes for people with common mental health problems who are in and out of work, with a focus on better alignment of employment and health services. North East Yorkshire & Humber and South Yorkshire JCP Districts intend to use the FSF to carry out a pilot to test the concept of telephony -based employment and wellbeing interventions for specific JSA claimants not attached to the Work Programme, via the award of a single contract for both districts. The pilot will test the concept of a telephony intervention for JSA claimants including the newly unemployed; young people with no work record; and new entrants to JSA from other benefits who express concern about their general wellbeing or the impact that undertaking jobsearch will have on their wellbeing, or where their JCP job coach perceives similar issues. The aim of the pilot is to test the design detail of the intervention model, methods of tracking findings and, where possible, initial effects. These findings, alongside the results of other pilots, will help inform future considerations on what types of support best assist claimants with employment and wellbeing needs to progress in the labour market.
