The tender document is currently in preparation, and it is intended to be published on the LGSS e-tendering portal by March 9, 2018. The estimated value of the contract is £60,000, with a minimum bid value set at £50,000. The tender period will close on March 23, 2018, while the contract is expected to commence from April 9, 2018, and run until April 12, 2021.

This tender presents a significant opportunity for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) to expand their operations in the public sector, particularly within the marketing and advertising fields. Businesses with expertise in community engagement, recruitment campaigns, and social marketing strategies would be particularly well-suited to compete, as the goal is to foster local understanding and participation in fostering initiatives, ultimately benefiting local children and families.

Notice Title

Cambridgeshire County Council - Transforming Fostering Campaign

Notice Description

Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC) is intending to publish a tender opportunity for Transforming Fostering Campaign. CCC aims to deliver a campaign run across Cambridgeshire which will focus on helping place more local children in homes close to their schools and other services and providing those children with a happier, brighter future. It will be built on clear and careful research into the current fostering population in order to encourage more likeminded people to consider fostering, building on a better understanding of what might encourage those who aren't currently well represented in the fostering community to consider this option, or encouraging those who care via independent agencies to consider becoming in-house carers. We are currently working on the tender documents and these will be published on the LGSS e-tendering portal ProContract - https://www.lgssprocurementportal.co.uk/.
