Summary of the contracting process

The Sheffield City Council is currently in the planning stage of a soft market test for Domestic Abuse Support Services (excluding accommodation). This initiative aims to consult the market regarding the provision of these services, with an engagement end date set for 1st September 2018. The procurement process will culminate in a formal tender competition to appoint one or more providers, ensuring that the approach aligns with the council's needs. This soft market test serves as a preliminary exercise to gather insights and representations from potential providers prior to the formal tender announcement.

This procurement presents significant opportunities for businesses specialising in social work and health services, particularly those with experience in supporting domestic abuse victims. Companies engaged in counselling, advocacy, and related support services would find this tender particularly relevant. By participating in the market engagement, businesses can influence the future tender requirements and better position themselves for the upcoming competition, ultimately contributing to the growth of their operations in the social care sector.

Notice Title

Soft Market Test: Domestic Abuse Support Services (excluding accommodation)

Notice Description

Sheffield City Council is conducting this soft market test as a precursor to a formal procurement process and approach to the market. We will be looking to appoint provider(s) for the provision of Domestic Abuse Support Services (excluding accommodation), and this survey is intended to feed into this process. There will be a formal tender competition to appoint one or more successful provider(s) following on from this exercise in due course; the purpose of this soft market test is to consult with the market and offer an opportunity for you to make representations on our current thinking / potential approach to the market. This soft market test exercise therefore does not constitute a formal tender and will not result in the letting of a contract at this stage.
