Award Notice
Summary of the contracting process

Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council commissioned youth welfare services to support young people into education, training and employment. The work focuses on helping young people access and engage with citizenship, activism, social and community life, education, the world of work and relationships. Delivery is in Yorkshire and the Humber, with the buyer based in Barnsley. This is a people-focused support service rather than a goods or construction contract, aimed at improving young people’s participation and routes into learning and work.

The procurement is complete and was awarded to Chillypep through a direct award. The award date was 1 April 2026, and the award value was £95,506. The contract period runs from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2027. The tender’s stated submission deadline was 12 October 2026. The procurement was classified as a service and concerned one requirement. The award information names Chillypep as the selected supplier. The published evaluation basis and detailed eligibility conditions are not included in the process information.

For providers of youth support and welfare services, this award shows Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council’s demand for practical support connecting young people with education, training, employment and wider community participation. A credible competitor for a similar requirement would need to demonstrate experience engaging young people and helping them build the confidence and capacity to take part in learning, work, relationships and civic or social life. The emphasis is on accessible, relationship-based support and meaningful engagement, not simply providing training or job-placement activity. The council selected a large supplier for this contract, while the tender marked the requirement as unsuitable for SMEs and voluntary, community and social enterprises; prospective competitors should therefore consider the scale and organisational capacity expected.
